For My Name's Sake is a novel written by Gaston Bascle De Lagreze and published in 1908. The story is set in Louisiana in the late 1800s and follows the life of a young man named Robert Dabney. Robert comes from a wealthy and influential family, but he is not content with his privileged life. He falls in love with a young woman named Antoinette, who is from a much lower social class. Despite the objections of his family, Robert marries Antoinette and starts a new life with her. The novel explores themes of love, social class, and family loyalty. It also delves into the racial tensions that existed in Louisiana during this time period. Robert and Antoinette's marriage is seen as scandalous by many in their community, and they face opposition from both white and black residents. The story is told through Robert's perspective, and the reader gets an intimate look at his struggles to balance his love for Antoinette with his loyalty to his family and his social status.For My Name's Sake is a classic novel that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural dynamics of Louisiana in the late 1800s. It is a thought-provoking and engaging read that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and romance novels.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
