Description
The story of a Puritan girl transplanted from New England to the England of Cromwell and Charles II, Penitence Hervey is spirited and brave, torn by mixed loyalties and trying to find her way out of the confused maze of war torn England. Penitence is a very appealing heroine in this fast moving, exciting story that is as personal and intimate as a diary.
“One of history's more exciting episodes is the escape of Charles II after the Battle of Worcester in 1651. With Parliamentarians hunting for him, he was concealed by loyal supporters and eventually made his way to safety in France.
Mr. and Mrs. Beatty create a fictional character, Penitence Hervey, a Puritan from the American colonies, to accompany King Charles for part of his journey. The King's story is only a part of this novel, however, which concentrates more on Pen's interactions with her Royalist, non-Puritan English relatives.” Aunt Book
