La Vendée: An Historical Romance is Anthony Trollope's third novel, published in 1850. His first two novels, set in Ireland, had been unsuccessful, so he decided to try further afield in both setting and time. This is his first historical novel, set in France immediately after The French Revolution, about the Vendean uprising.The French Revolution succeeds in overthrowing and executing Louis XVI. Unfortunately for its leaders, they reckoned without the rural, strongly Catholic, emphatically pro-monarchy area of La Vendée. They make the critical mistake of conscripting Vendean men into the revolutionary army.The town of St. Florent objects. When the soldiers attempt to take conscripts by force, it sets off a riot that triggers an uprising. Caught up in the midst of it are three friends: Henri de Larochejaquelein, Charles de Lescure, and Adolphe Denot. Henri and Charles become leaders of the counter-revolution, while Adolphe turns traitor.The book is available for free on Project Gutenberg.Contains examples of:
