In this book, scholars of the Huguenot Refuge examine the situation of French Protestants before and after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in France and in the countries to which many of them fled during the great exodus which followed the Edict of Fontainebleau. Covering a period from the end of the 16th to the beginning of the 19th century, the book examines aspects of life in France, from the debate on church unity to funeral customs. Its primary focus is on the departure from France and its consequences, both before and after the Revocation. It offers insights into individuals and groups, from grandees - such as Henri de Ruvigny, depute general and later known as Earl of Galway - to converted Catholic priests, and from businessmen and communities choosing their destination for economic as well as religious reasons, to women and children moving across European frontiers or groups seeking refuge in the islands of the Indian Ocean. The information-gathering activities of the French authorities and the reception of problematic groups - such as the Camisard prophets among exile communities - are examined, as well as the significant contributions which Huguenots began to make in a variety of fields to the countries in which they had settled. The refugees were extremely interested in the history of their diaspora and of the individuals of which it was composed, and this theme too is explored. Finally, the Napoleonic period brought some of the refugees up against France in a more immediate way, raising further questions of identity and aspiration for the Huguenot community in Germany.

The Huguenots were the most successful refugees to leave their homeland in search of freedom. The book tells of their questioning of the established Catholic faith in France and continues through the rise of Calvinism, the wars of religion, the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, and the global diaspora of the Huguenots. It examines the national events that shaped their times, and brings to life some of their personal stories of persecution and flight, and how they travelled far and wide to begin new lives with the promise of religious and personal freedom. The book not only tells their history but informs the reader of the numerous, diverse and ingenious inventions, many of which are still much in evidence in our lives today. The book focuses mainly on France and the United Kingdom but within its covers can be found a kaleidoscope of information of their worldwide diaspora. Included within its pages are countless, often previously unpublished, Huguenot family histories set against the events they lived through. The book covers 500 years of history from 1517-2017 and includes many courageous and selfless acts of Huguenot descendants during both world wars and identifies many well-known individuals who have Huguenot ancestry. There is also information on how to research your Huguenot ancestors. The book has been described as a factual novel as it embraces both dedicated meticulous cross-referenced research with the easy read of a novel. A book with a difference that will suit both academic scholars and those who have very little knowledge of the Huguenots but would like to know more.

Not illustrated. 1895 edition. Excerpt: ... watched the energetic efforts that followed for his relief through half-closed eyes, with the indifference of utter exhaustion. The new-comer did not again address or look at him. With water from the neighboring brook he staunched the flow of blood, and then with quick, skilful fingers, replaced the compress. With the stay of life's ebbing current, Henri's strength began to return, his brain grew clearer, and he looked earnestly at the grave, kindly face, partially averted from him. There was something in the serious, quick-glancing eyes, and the steadfast lines about the silent lips, thatattracted, yet baffled him. "I think I have met you before," he said feebly. "But I canriot recall your name. Ah, I remember now. You are the young man who spoke to us in the church just now. I am glad to have a chance of thanking you, monsieur. That was a better turn even than this." The surgeon looked up, without pausing in his work, and smiled. "Your memory is short. The meeting in the temple was not our first interview, M. Henri." Was it the old name, or the full glance, or the quiet, well-known smile, that told Henri La Roche the truth? The next moment he had thrown his arms about the stranger's neck, and was sobbing like a child. "Rene, Rene! I know you now. How could I have been so blind?" Godfrey Chevalier's son was by far the calmer of the two. He pressed his lips warmly to the hand on his shoulder, and then forced his companion back to his recumbent position. "For once, I must be allowed to give orders to my young sieur," he said gravely. "M. Henri, if you do not remain quiet for a few moments, your wound will begin bleeding again, and I may not be able to staunch it." Henri submitted passively. "I am happy enough to do anything that you wish, ...
