The History of Henry Esmond, Paperback/William Thackeray

Set in the reign of Queen Anne, this title presents a story that follows the troubled progress of a gentleman and an officer in Marlborough's army, as he painfully wrestles with an emotional allegiance to the old Tory-Catholic England until, disillusioned, he comes to terms of a kind with the Whiggish-Protestant future.
