Show Notes
The Refugees: A Tale of Two Continents,’Conan Doyle's fourth historical novel, was first published by Harper's Monthly Magazine in the first half of 1893. It explores the events surrounding Louis XIV's Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 and how this impacts on a small group of Huguenots who are sent, as Conan Doyle put it, “flying like leaves before a hurricane.”
