Op de Levensreis

About the author

Born in 1878 and dying in 1960, Hendrik Anne Constantijn Snethlage was a Dutch author associated with religious and reflective writing. Public-domain catalog records link him to Op de Levensreis, and family-genealogy material credits him with Albert Schweitzer - de man die tot allen spreekt from 1935.

The surviving information available online is limited, so a full literary biography is hard to confirm in detail. Even so, the record that does survive suggests a writer concerned with faith, character, and the meaning of a well-lived life.

For readers of older Dutch nonfiction and devotional literature, his work offers a glimpse into the spiritual culture of the early twentieth century in the Netherlands.
