''The Huguenots and the Edict of Nantes'' is a historical paper written by William Gammell and read before the Rhode Island Historical Society in 1886. The book provides a detailed account of the Huguenots, a Protestant group in France, and their struggles for religious freedom during the 16th and 17th centuries. Gammell explores the political and social context of the time, including the reign of King Henry IV and the eventual passing of the Edict of Nantes in 1598, which granted the Huguenots some measure of religious tolerance. The book also examines the revocation of the Edict in 1685 and the subsequent persecution of the Huguenots, which led to many of them fleeing France and settling in other parts of Europe and America. Overall, ''The Huguenots and the Edict of Nantes'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious persecution and the struggle for religious freedom in France.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
