The Grand Mademoiselle is a historical novel written by James Eugene Farmer and published in 1899. The story is set in 17th century France and follows the life of Anne Marie Louise d'Orleans, also known as the Grand Mademoiselle. Anne Marie is the daughter of Gaston d'Orleans, the younger brother of King Louis XIII. She is a strong-willed and independent woman who defies the expectations of her time by refusing to marry for political gain and instead choosing to pursue her own interests.Throughout the novel, Anne Marie faces many challenges, including political intrigue, family drama, and personal struggles. She becomes involved in the Fronde rebellion against her cousin, King Louis XIV, and risks everything to fight for her beliefs. Along the way, she meets a cast of colorful characters, including her loyal friend and confidant, Madame de Motteville, and her love interest, the dashing Duke of Lauzun.The Grand Mademoiselle is a sweeping epic that explores themes of love, loyalty, and the struggle for power. Farmer's vivid descriptions of 17th century France bring the era to life, and his portrayal of Anne Marie as a strong and independent woman ahead of her time makes for a compelling read. The novel is a must-read for anyone interested in French history or historical fiction.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
