When London burned : a story of Restoration times and the great fire

( Nov. 21, 2015)
A fantastic historical adventure novel set during the time of the Great Fire of London by the master of the genre G. A. Henty.
We are accustomed to regard the Reign of Charles II. as one of the most inglorious periods of English History; but this was far from being the case. It is true that the extravagance and profligacy of the Court were carried to a point unknown before or since, forming, —by the indignation they excited among the people at large, —the main cause of the overthrow of the House of Stuart.
