Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Huguenots in France and America, Vol. 1 of 2 It has been my endeavour, in the series of books on the Reformation, which the history of the Huguenots closes, ("Luther" and "Cranmer" having preceded it,) to preserve undeviatingly the truth of history, always reserving to myself the right of free and impartial judgment, where narratives, as is sometimes the case, differ. Having consulted historians and biographers, I might have encumbered the works with notes and references; but this would have been inconsistent with my plan. Davila, Montluc, Bassompierre, Anquetil, St. Simon, Sully, Voltaire, Smedley, Wraxall, Sismondi, and many others have been consulted; but references are seldom made, except where history has approached, as all readers must be aware it often does, so near to romance as to wear the appearance of fiction. A mere compilation of facts presents only the skeleton of History; we do but little for her if we cannot invest her with life, clothe her in the habiliments of her day, and enable her to call forth the sympathies of succeeding generations.
