Jacques Bonneval: Or The Days Of The Dragonnades is a historical novel written by Anne Manning and originally published in 1867. The story is set in 17th century France during a time when the Huguenots, a Protestant religious group, were being persecuted by the Catholic authorities. The novel follows the life of Jacques Bonneval, a young Huguenot who is forced to flee his home and family after his father is arrested for his religious beliefs. Jacques travels to England where he becomes a soldier and fights in the English Civil War. After the war, Jacques returns to France and becomes involved in the resistance movement against the persecution of the Huguenots. Along the way, he falls in love with a young woman named Marie, who is also a Huguenot. The novel is a gripping tale of love, adventure, and religious persecution, and it offers a fascinating glimpse into a turbulent period of French history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
