Athenais: Or The First Crusade is a historical novel written by William Stigand and published in 1866. The book is set during the First Crusade in the 11th century and follows the story of Athenais, a beautiful and intelligent woman who becomes embroiled in the politics and warfare of the time. Athenais is the daughter of a wealthy Byzantine nobleman and is betrothed to a powerful lord, but her life takes a dramatic turn when she falls in love with a French knight who is fighting in the crusade. As the war rages on and alliances shift, Athenais finds herself caught between her loyalty to her family and her love for the knight. The novel is filled with action, romance, and political intrigue, and provides a vivid portrayal of the tumultuous times of the First Crusade.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
