Textbook 108-112 Peter Stuyvesant was the governor of New Netherland during 1664. Stuyvesant swore that he would defend the city during the quarrel with England but had few weapons, gunpowder and respect to do so. He had no respect because of his harsh rule and heavy taxes so therefore refused to help him. This held him back from keeping his word of defending the city.
