The elder England has been so fully written of, and in such an engaging manner for youthful readers, in the late Sir Francis Palgrave's 'History of the Anglo-Saxons,' that it would have been superfluous to expand the very scanty Cameos of that portion of our history. The present volume, then, includes the history of the Norman race of sovereigns, from Rollo to Edward of Carnarvon.

Aunt Carlotte's Stories Of Greek History

Charlotte Mary Yonge (1823-1901) was an English novelist known for her huge output, now mostly out of print.Like Yonge's other works, this novel has an instructional purpose and a high religious & moral tone. However, in this case I did not find these so intrusive as to interfere at all with my considerable enjoyment of the book. Needless to say, The Clever Woman of the Family is hardly a feminist manifesto . This book has many of the elements of a classic Victorian novel. There's the long-suffering, nearly saintly invalid. There's a helpless widow, and there's a buffoonish curate. And most importantly, there's an independent-leaning woman whose spunk and desire for knowledge make her foolish. In Yonge's novel we enter the world of Rachel Curtis, the so-named "clever woman," who loves to read the latest tract on educational theory, and hopes some day to put them into practice for the benefit of local youth. But Rachel is also a provincial daughter, and there are few opportunities for an independent and knowledge-hungry woman in the provinces in 1865. Rachel disagrees strongly with women acting flighty and foolish for the benefit of suitors or the clergy. What Rachel values is substance, but she finds little of it in her provincial surroundings. Those around Rachel see her as arrogant and foolish. When Rachel is finally given the opportunity to put her theories into practice, the consequences are more devastating and far-reaching than anyone could have imagined.

The Armourer's Prentices

The Chaplet of Pearls (1868) is an historical novel written by Charlotte Mary Yonge and set mainly in France between 1559 and 1594, the period of struggle between Roman Catholics following the Reformation. In her novel C. M. Yonge follows closely the train of historical events, using them freely in her plot and making frequent allusions to them, either in the thoughts and discussions of her characters or through the omniscient narrator. Thus the persecution of the Huguenots causes the hero's father to escape with his family to England. The hero himself is nearly murdered in the massacre of St Bartholomew and the heroine finds a degree of safety in the Huguenot-dominated south of France. The villains of the tale are adherents of the Guise family and Catherine de Medici. The complex political situation in 1572 is the subject of discussion between Walsingham, the English ambassador and the young Philip Sidney. The narrator informs the reader of other matters such as the character of Charles IX and the nature of his mother's influence. Many other historical characters are introduced and influence the course of the hero and heroine's lives.There is more suspense than is usual in C. M. Yonge's historical novels. The hero and heroine are in frequent danger and the outcome is often left in doubt for some time. Thus Berenger, the hero, is left lying dangerously ill as the narrative switches to the heroine, Eustacie, in peril from her enemies. Later in the novel these enemies discuss their schemes so that the reader is made aware of the dangers of which Berenger and Eustacie are unconscious.
