Produced by Nick Hodson of London, England "Exiled for the Faith: A Tale of the Huguenot Persecution" by W.H.G. Kingston is a historical novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around the plight of Huguenots, particularly through the experiences of a young Scottish man named Nigel Melvin, who leaves Scotland in search of fortune and becomes entangled in the dangerous political and religious environment of 16th-century France. The novel explores themes of faith, persecution, and the struggles faced by those holding Protestant beliefs during a time of intense Catholic oppression. The opening of the novel introduces Nigel as he arrives in France, where he meets his cousin, Mary Seton, in the gardens of the Louvre. The conversation reveals Nigel's intentions to serve under Admiral Coligny, a prominent Protestant figure, despite warnings from Mary about the dangers posed to Protestants in the royal court. As events unfold, Nigel encounters Constance de Tourville, a young Protestant lady who also faces the risks of being a Protestant in a Catholic stronghold. The mood shifts as they witness the severe consequences faced by heretics, setting a tone of urgency and danger for their impending choices. This beginning lays a rich foundation for an exploration of faith, loyalty, and the impact of the historical persecutions faced by the Huguenots.
