The Regicide's Daughter: A Tale Of Two Worlds is a historical fiction novel written by William Henry Carpenter and originally published in 1851. The story is set in the 17th century and follows the life of a young woman named Editha, who is the daughter of a regicide - someone who participated in the execution of King Charles I of England. Editha lives a life of secrecy and shame because of her father's actions, and she is forced to flee to America with her mother after her father is executed. In America, Editha struggles to fit in with the Puritan community and faces discrimination because of her family's past. The novel explores themes of identity, family, and loyalty as Editha navigates her way through two vastly different worlds. It also touches on the political and social upheaval of the time period, including the English Civil War and the Puritan migration to America. Overall, The Regicide's Daughter is a captivating tale that offers a unique perspective on a turbulent period in history. It is a must-read for fans of historical fiction and anyone interested in the complexities of family and identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
