About this book

This early work is Walter Besant's 1885 historical novel, "Dorothy Forster". Set to the backdrop of the English Jacobite rebellion of 1715, it is the story of Dorothy Forster, the sister of a Protestant Jacobite who becomes entangled in the plot to restore James III. This thrilling and historically-accurate novel constitutes a must-read for lovers of historical fiction, and is not to be missed by fans of Besant's work. Walter Besant (1836–1901) was an author and historian. Other notable works by this author include The "Lady of Lynn" (1901), "The Orange Girl", (1899), "Beyond the Dreams of Avarice" (1895). Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
