""Prince or Creole: The Mystery of Louis XVII"" by Publius V. Lawson is a historical non-fiction book that delves into the mystery surrounding the fate of Louis XVII, the son of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, who perished during the French Revolution. The book explores the various theories and claims made by individuals who have claimed to be Louis XVII, including the possibility that he may have survived and lived his life as a Creole slave in Louisiana. Lawson examines the evidence and provides a detailed analysis of the historical context surrounding the disappearance and death of Louis XVII, as well as the political and social factors that contributed to the mystery. The book provides a fascinating look into one of the most enduring mysteries of French history and offers a compelling argument for the various theories surrounding the fate of Louis XVII.1905.
