Thaddeus of Warsaw by Jane Porter
Requirements: EPUB Reader, 0.5MB
Overview: Thaddeus of Warsaw was an 1803 novel written by Jane Porter. It comprised four volumes and was a groundbreaking work of historical fiction,[1] “arguably the first English historical novel”.[2] The story was derived from eyewitness accounts of British soldiers and Polish refugees fleeing the failed revolts against the foreign occupation of Poland in the 1790s. The work is a hybrid: the first third relates developments and battles within Poland as a historical novel, the remainder of the books serve as a novel of manners describing how Thaddeus, having befriended a British soldier in the Russian army and learned from his mother that he himself is half English, flees to London to seek help for his cause among the British. He sells art, falls in love, and finds (and restores the honor of) his long-lost father.
