This book delves into the captivating history of Rutgers College, tracing its origins back to the Dutch settlers of New Netherland and their unwavering commitment to education and faith. It explores the establishment of New Brunswick, New Jersey, as a bustling hub of trade and commerce, and the subsequent founding of the college amidst the growing need for an American institution of higher learning. The author vividly portrays the challenges faced by the Dutch Reformed Church in America during the 18th century, particularly the struggle for independence from ecclesiastical authorities in Holland.
