Summary | "Vlissinger Michiel, of Neerlands glorie ter zee: Tweede omgewerkte Druk" by P. Louwerse is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The narrative focuses on the life of Michiel Adriaansz. de Ruyter, a celebrated Dutch naval commander known for his significant contributions to Dutch maritime history. The book aims to engage readers of various ages with a mix of facts and storytelling about this illustrious figure. The opening of the work introduces us to young Michiel, who is depicted as a spirited and mischievous boy living in Vlissingen. We catch a glimpse of his character through his interactions with his employer and fellow boys, illustrating his dreams of becoming a sailor and his misadventures about town. Michiel's lively personality shines through as he wishes to escape the constraints of land and pursue a life at sea, hinting at his future as a naval hero. Through dialogue with characters like his "baas" and friends, the tone is playful yet reflective of a boy's aspirations and challenges, setting the stage for his development into a notable sea captain in the Dutch navy.
