1689 - William and Mary; Queen Anne; George I; The Old Pretender (1715 Rebellion)

Annunciata, fiercely loyal to the Stuart cause, follows King James II into exile, leaving her gentle grandson Matt to care for Morland Place. In her absence he contracts an unwise marriage with India Neville, a woman as heartless as she is beautiful, who drives him between the extremes of passionate love and deep despair. When James III - the Chevalier - returns to claim the Stuart throne, the Morlands are reunited in one country. The rebellion fails, and Annuniciata's sons are on trial for their lives, but defeat and even death itself cannot conquer the Morland sprit.

Notice Of Books The Chevalier (Morland Dynasty #7)

One of my favorites so far!



Wonderful historical fiction following the Morland family through another generation. A great read for lovers of English history.

The seventh volume of The Morland Dynasty series covers the era from the beginning of the reign of William & Mary through that of Queen Anne, concluding shortly after the 1715 Rising, which occurred after the ascension of the Elector George to the throne of England. This is a much neglected period, and this book tells it from the point of view of supporters of James II and his son, James, the Chevalier of the title (known to history as "the Old Pretender"). Readers will probably get the most

Annunciata Morland, die als junge Frau am Hof von Charles II. für Aufsehen sorgte, hält auch in vorgerücktem Alter dem in Ausland geflohenen James II. und seinen Nachkommen leidenschaftlich die Treue, während auf dem englischen Thron William of Orange und seine Gattin Mary sitzen. Für Annunciata eine unerträgliche Situation und auch keine ganz ungefährliche, so dass ihr Weg schließlich ins französische Exil führt.Ihr Enkel Matt muss indessen die Herrschaft über Morland Place übernehmen. Das

This is number 7 in a long series. Some are better than others. I enjoy learning English history but there are so many characters that I have a difficult time remembering who is who.

This was one of the most absorbing of the series so far, until the last third or so which read like a history book (general so-and-so besieged the town of such-and-such and army x conquered blah blah, etc., etc.) Annunciata keeps on kickin!
