Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Gold Sickle: Or Hena, the Virgin of the Isle of Sen; A Tale of Druid Gaul

But the four preceding ones are necessary, and preparatory for the main drama, that starts with the fifth story and that, although carried down to the revolution of 1848 which overthrew Louis Philippe in France, reaches its grand climax in The Sword of Honor; or, The Foundation of the French Republic, that is, the French Revolution. These stories are nineteen in number, and their chronological order is the following.
