Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Gentleman of France, Vol. 1 of 3: Being the Memoirs of Gaston De Bonne, Sieur De Marsac
The death of the prince had left the King of Navarre without a rlval in the affections of the Huguenots; the Vicomte de Turenne, whose turbulent ambition already began to make itself felt, and M. De Chatillon, rank ing next to him. It was my ill-fortune, how ever, to be equally unknown to all three leaders and as the month of December which saw me thus miserably straitened saw me reach the age of forty, which I regard, differ ing in that from many, as the grand eli maeteric of a man's life, it will be believed that I had need of all the courage which reli gion and a campaigner's life could supply.
