The Vaudois Exiles is a historical novel written by Mrs. A. Oliver Rutherfurd in 1878. The book tells the story of a group of Protestants known as the Vaudois who were forced to flee their homes in the Piedmont region of Italy in the late 17th century due to religious persecution. The novel follows the lives of several Vaudois families as they make the difficult journey to safety in Switzerland, facing many challenges and dangers along the way. The main characters include a young couple named Pierre and Jeanne, who are separated during the exodus and must find each other again, and a group of children who are orphaned during the journey and must rely on the kindness of strangers to survive.Throughout the book, the author provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes and cultures of both Italy and Switzerland, as well as the political and religious tensions of the time. The Vaudois Exiles is a tale of courage, perseverance, and faith in the face of adversity, and is a compelling read for anyone interested in historical fiction or religious history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
