Agnes Beaumont: A True Story of the Year 1670 is a historical novel written by Marian Caldecott and published in 1874. The book is set in England during the 17th century and tells the story of Agnes Beaumont, a young woman who is forced to flee from her home after being accused of a crime she did not commit. Agnes is a devout Quaker and her religious beliefs put her at odds with the authorities, who view her as a threat to the established order. As she travels across the country, Agnes encounters other Quakers who have also been persecuted for their faith. She becomes a leader among them and helps to organize resistance against the unjust laws that have been enacted against them. The novel is based on real events and characters from the time period, and Caldecott's meticulous research is evident in the detailed descriptions of the Quaker community and their struggles. The book also explores themes of faith, persecution, and the power of community in the face of adversity. Overall, Agnes Beaumont: A True Story of the Year 1670 is a compelling historical novel that offers a glimpse into the lives of Quakers during a tumultuous period 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.
