Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Great Companions
Monmouth 's popularity rose. Garlands were hung on the doors where he passed. At Taun ton a troop of young girls presented him with a ?ag and a bible. His army received constant accessions. But it was too untried to withstand the great force of James' followers which faced it at Edgemoor.
De Foe and his companions were now to see King James' victory and the beheading of their own leader, followed by a bigoted persecution hard and senseless enough to outrage even the ruthless Marlborough who was forced to exe cute it.
