Synopsis

The Leaguer of Lathom is a historical novel by William Harrison Ainsworth, set during the English Civil War in Lancashire. The story follows the siege of Lathom House, the stronghold of the Royalist sympathizer Charlotte de la Tremouille, Countess of Derby, by the Parliamentarian forces led by Sir Thomas Fairfax. The novel is a fictionalized account of the events that took place during the siege, with Ainsworth weaving together historical facts and imaginative storytelling to create a vivid and engaging narrative. The book is notable for its portrayal of strong female characters, particularly the Countess of Derby, who is depicted as a courageous and resourceful leader during the siege. The Leaguer of Lathom is a compelling historical novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the turbulent times of the English Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
