Mademoiselle Celeste: A Romance Of The French Revolution is a historical novel written by Adele Ferguson Knight and first published in 1910. The story is set during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution and follows the life of Celeste, a young woman from a noble family who finds herself caught up in the revolutionary fervor of the times.As the daughter of a wealthy aristocrat, Celeste is initially sheltered from the violence and chaos that is sweeping across France. However, when her father is arrested and executed for his connections to the old regime, Celeste is forced to flee for her life. She joins a group of revolutionaries and becomes involved in their struggle for freedom and equality.Along the way, Celeste falls in love with a fellow revolutionary named Pierre, but their relationship is complicated by the political upheaval around them. As the revolution spirals out of control and the Reign of Terror takes hold, Celeste and Pierre must navigate dangerous alliances and betrayals in order to survive.Mademoiselle Celeste is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and political intrigue set against the backdrop of one of the most tumultuous periods in French history. Knight's vivid descriptions of life during the revolution and her nuanced portrayal of the characters make this a must-read for anyone interested in this fascinating period of history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
