Basile The Jester: A Romance Of The Days Of Mary Queen Of Scots is a historical fiction novel written by Joyce Emmerson Muddock and originally published in 1897. The story is set in Scotland during the reign of Mary Queen of Scots and follows the life of a jester named Basile who is employed by the queen. Basile is a talented and witty performer, but he harbors a dark secret: he is a member of a secret society that is plotting to overthrow the queen and put her cousin, Elizabeth I, on the throne. As Basile becomes more deeply involved in the plot, he must confront his own loyalties and decide where his true allegiance lies. Along the way, he falls in love with a beautiful woman named Blanche, who may hold the key to his salvation or his downfall. The novel is filled with intrigue, romance, and political drama, and offers a vivid portrayal of life in 16th century Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
