The Lost Prince: Facts Tending To Prove The Identity Of Louis The 17th Of France, And The Rev. Eleazar Williams, Missionary Among The Indians Of North America is a historical book written by John Halloway Hanson in 1854. The book explores the theory that Louis XVII, the son of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, did not die in prison during the French Revolution as previously believed, but instead escaped and lived the rest of his life in North America under the name Eleazar Williams. Hanson provides evidence to support this theory, including Williams' physical resemblance to the lost prince, his knowledge of the royal family's secrets and customs, and the accounts of Native Americans who knew Williams and believed him to be of royal descent. The book also delves into the political and social climate of the time, including the tensions between France and the United States, and the treatment of Native Americans by European colonizers. Overall, The Lost Prince is a fascinating exploration of a little-known theory about the fate of Louis XVII and the potential impact it had on American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
