By England's Aid; Or, the Freeing of the Netherlands, 1585-1604 is a historical fiction novel by G. A. Henty. Henty was an English novelist and war correspondent. Excerpt: "But the sights that the boys had been so longing to see had for the time lost their interest in their eyes. The idea that it was possible that Mr. Vere would take them with him to fight against the cruel oppressors of the Low Country was so absorbing that they could think of nothing else. Even the wonders of the Guildhall and St. Paul's received but scant attention, and the armourers' shops, in which they had a new and lively interest, alone sufficed to detain them. Even the gibes of the apprentices fell dead upon their ears. These varlets might laugh, but what would they say if they knew that they were going to fight the Spaniards? The thought so altered them that they felt almost a feeling of pity for these lads, condemned to stay at home and mind their masters' shops."
First published in 1891, Henty's?By England's Aid tells the story of the Spanish Catholics' defeat by the Protestant Netherlands with the help of English soldiers during the religious conflicts spanning 1585 to 1604.
