About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of No Quarter! by Thomas Mayne Reid. Read in English by Shasta; W. P. Costello; chuckconvr; Anita Sloma-Martinez; John; BourbonReader; BrittanyRill; ZoinkMeister Patrick; Sandra Cullum; Mischella; mokka; Matthew Reece; KevinS There is no page in England’s history so bright, nor of which Englishmen have such reason to be proud, as that covering the period between 1640 and 1650. This glorious decade was ushered in by the election of the “Long Parliament,” and I challenge the annals of all nations, ancient or modern, to show an assembly in which sat a greater number of statesmen and patriots. Brave as pure, fearless in the discharge of their difficult and dangerous duties, they faltered not in the performance of them—shrank not from impeaching a traitor to his country, and bringing his head to the block, even when it carried a crown. True to their consciences, as to their constituencies, they left England a heritage of honour that for long haloed her escutcheon, and even to this hour throws its covering screen over many a deed of shame. (From the Prologue)
