About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Huguenot: A Tale of the French Protestants by George Payne Rainsford James. Read in English by Lynne T The time of French king Louis XIV was a time of religious conflict. His father, Louis XIII had tried to suppress the teachings and followers of Calvin but was thwarted by his ministers. The son took a different path. The king was Catholic, and although he was tolerant of others, some in his government were less so, and persecuted the Protestant Huguenots. This is the story of Albert, Count of Morseiul as he treads the tightrope of being a Huguenot landowner and loyal subject and friend of the king.
