William and Mary: A Tale of the Siege of Louisburg, 1745

Excerpt from William and Mary: A Tale of the Siege of Louisburg, 1745It was long a matter of surprise to me, why the story of the remarkable siege of 1745 had never been presented to the public in popular form. The present work is an attempt to do this and however imperfectly it has been done, it has from the beginning been a labor of love. While the historical portion of the narrative is strictly accurate, so far at least as the authorities consulted are accurate, the usual liberties permitted to writers of fiction have been taken advantage of.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
