This is not a history book but a long fictional account of the lives and loves of the Huguenots. The story begins in seventeenth-century France in a hilltop town called Morseiul. We are introduced to the old Count of Morseuil, whom the town's inhabitants petition to build a road that will be easier for horses to navigate, than the existing one. He acquiesces, but for reasons of his own.

"The Huguenots in France" by Samuel Smiles The Huguenots were a religious group of French Protestants who held to the Reformed, or Calvinist, a tradition of Protestantism. This book begins with the revocation of the Edict of Nantes and continues until the time of the French Revolution. While many of the Huguenots fled the country, others suffered incredible persecution at the hands of the crown and the church. In spite of this, French Protestantism refused to die, a conviction that's noted in this text.
