Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Prince or Creole: The Mystery of Louis XVII Though written in popular style, this book is intended as the real verified history and complete biography of the Lost Little King, uncrowned Louis XVII, of France; the thrilling story of a real life, that seems almost unreal enough for romance. It has been a sad tale of two continents for a century. A recent visitor to Paris, writes of the great interest taken in all that pertains to Marie Antoinette; of how her palaces are sought out; fancy prices paid for her pictures; and they flock to the room she occupied; gaze on the bed she slept in and examine all articles once used by her, and never seem to tire; and it may be equally said of the son she loved so fondly, that the sad misfortunes of the little prince forever appeal to our sympathy. We hope he was taken alive from the Temple. It is a half century since Rev. Dr. Hanson´s carefully written and interesting "Lost Prince," published by Harpers, first collected the evidence which tended to prove the identity of Louis XVII with Eleazer Williams. For obvious reasons the escape of the little King from the Temple has been persistently denied in certain quarters. Since his reported death Prance has been ruled by Napoleon, the restored Bourbons, Orleans, little Napoleon and again a Republic, powerful interests which have always been averse to his discovery. Since the eloquent Dr. Hanson wrote there has been disclosed and brought to light many new facts which tend to strengthen the view he contended for.
