William Prince of Orange or The King and His Hostage is a historical novel written by T. M. Merriman. The book is set in the late 17th century and tells the story of William of Orange, a Dutch prince who becomes the King of England after overthrowing his father-in-law, King James II, in the Glorious Revolution of 1688. The story revolves around the political intrigue and power struggles that take place during this period, with William having to navigate the complex web of alliances and rivalries that exist between the various factions vying for control of England. The title of the book refers to the fact that James II's daughter, Mary, was married to William and was effectively held hostage by her father as a means of keeping William in check. The book is a gripping tale of political machinations, betrayal, and loyalty, and offers a fascinating insight into one of the most tumultuous periods in English history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
