Aimee: A Tale Of The Days Of James The Second is a historical novel written by Agnes Giberne in 1872. The story is set in the 17th century during the reign of King James II of England. The main character of the book is Aimee, a young girl who is orphaned and taken in by a wealthy family. Aimee is a Huguenot, a member of a Protestant group that faced persecution in France during this time. The novel follows Aimee’s journey as she navigates her way through the complicated political and religious landscape of the era. Along the way, she falls in love with a young man named Claude, who is also a Huguenot. The two must overcome various obstacles, including the threat of imprisonment and death, as they fight for their beliefs and their love. The novel is a blend of historical fiction and romance, offering readers a glimpse into the tumultuous times of 17th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
