Fair Margaret

Fair Margaret is a historical romance novel written by H. Rider Haggard. The story is set in the 16th century and follows the life of Margaret Owen, a beautiful and intelligent young woman who is forced to flee her home in England after her father is accused of treason. Margaret finds refuge in the court of Queen Elizabeth I and becomes a lady-in-waiting to the queen. While at court, Margaret meets and falls in love with Lord Edward, a handsome and brave young man who is also a loyal supporter of the queen. However, their love is threatened by the political turmoil of the time, as well as by the jealous machinations of Lord Edward’s scheming cousin, Sir John. As Margaret and Lord Edward struggle to navigate the dangerous waters of court politics and personal rivalries, they must also confront their own fears and doubts about their relationship. Fair Margaret is a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and betrayal set against the backdrop of one of the most fascinating periods in English history.Now he appeared to be much disturbed, and said finally that they would bring him into trouble with the Marquis of Morella–how or why, he would not explain, though Peter guessed that it might be lest the marquis should learn from them that this priest, his chaplain, had been plundering the ship which he thought sunk, and possessing himself of his jewels. At length, seeing that the man meant mischief and would stop them in some fashion if they delayed, they bade him farewell hastily, and, pushing past him, mounted the mules that stood outside and rode away with their guide.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
