The Noble Slaves is a historical novel written by Penelope Aubin. The story is set in the 17th century and follows the life of a young woman named Rosalinda, who is captured by pirates and sold into slavery. Rosalinda is bought by a wealthy man named Alphonso, who falls in love with her and makes her his mistress. However, their happiness is short-lived as Alphonso's jealous wife plots to get rid of Rosalinda. As the story progresses, Rosalinda is faced with various challenges and hardships, including a violent uprising by the slaves on Alphonso's plantation. Despite the difficulties, Rosalinda remains strong and determined to fight for her freedom and independence. The Noble Slaves is a tale of love, betrayal, and the struggle for freedom in a time of social and political upheaval. It explores themes of power, class, and race, and offers a vivid portrayal of life in the Caribbean during the 17th century. Penelope Aubin's writing is richly detailed and engaging, making this novel a must-read for fans of historical fiction.These Persons, who are the principal Subject of this Narrative, were both Natives of Spain; the Lady Teresa's Father was Don Sancho de Avilla, a Gentleman of Castile; who being a Widower took this young Lady, his only Child, then but Ten Years of Age, and went for Mexico, where he resolved to reside the Remainder of his Days; having received some disgust at his Master the King of Spain, who had refused him the Government of a Place in Castile, which he had asked for.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
