Penruddock of the White Lambs is a historical novel written by Samuel Harden Church and published in 1902. The story is set in the 17th century and follows the adventures of a young Englishman named Penruddock as he travels from Holland to America. Penruddock is a member of the White Lambs, a secret society that opposes the rule of Oliver Cromwell in England. After a failed attempt to overthrow Cromwell, Penruddock flees to Holland, where he meets a Dutch girl named Gretchen. They fall in love and decide to travel to America to start a new life. The journey to America is filled with danger and excitement, as Penruddock and Gretchen face storms, pirates, and hostile Native Americans. Along the way, they also encounter a group of Quakers who inspire Penruddock to question his beliefs about violence and rebellion. Once they arrive in America, Penruddock and Gretchen settle in Pennsylvania and start a family. However, their peaceful life is threatened when Penruddock’s past catches up with him and he is forced to confront his former comrades in the White Lambs. Penruddock of the White Lambs is a thrilling adventure story that explores themes of love, loyalty, and the struggle for freedom. It offers a vivid portrayal of life in 17th century Europe and America and is a must-read for fans of historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
