The Black Wolf's Breed is a historical fiction novel set in France during the reign of Louis XIV. Written by Harris Dickson and published in 1899, the book tells the story of a young nobleman named Raoul de Cevennes, who is forced to flee his home after being falsely accused of a crime. Raoul joins a group of Huguenots (Protestants) who are also on the run from the authorities, and together they embark on a perilous journey across France and the Atlantic Ocean to the New World.Along the way, Raoul falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Yvonne, who is also a member of the Huguenot group. They face many challenges and dangers, including attacks by bandits and hostile Native American tribes. Meanwhile, back in France, Raoul's family and friends are struggling to clear his name and bring him back home.As the title suggests, the novel also features a mysterious and dangerous character known as the Black Wolf, who is rumored to be a werewolf. The Black Wolf is feared by many, but Raoul and his companions eventually discover the truth behind the legend.The Black Wolf's Breed is a thrilling adventure story that combines historical accuracy with imaginative storytelling. It offers a vivid portrayal of life in France during the late 17th century, as well as the struggles and triumphs of the Huguenot community.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
