Omschrijving

The Headsman: A Tale (1855) is a novel written by James Fenimore Cooper. The story is set in Switzerland during the 15th century and follows the lives of two young lovers, Sigismund and Adelheid. Sigismund is the son of a nobleman who has been accused of treason and sentenced to death by the headsman, a notorious executioner. Adelheid is the daughter of the headsman and is torn between her love for Sigismund and her loyalty to her father. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and justice as the characters navigate the complexities of their relationships and their roles in society. The Headsman is a gripping tale of romance and intrigue, filled with vivid descriptions of medieval life and the political turmoil of the time. It is considered one of Cooper's most accomplished works and is a must-read for fans of historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
