A sharp, unfolding adventure from a long-hidden past, An Enemy To The King invites you to step into a world where diaries become dynamite, and every page turns history into drama. In this epistolary memoir, Robert Neilson Stephens fashions a keen historical adventure fiction braided with period mystery. The narrator's letters and intimate recollections illuminate early modern Europe and the New France frontier, revealing frontiers of empire, intrigue, and honour. The voice is lucid, urgent, and accessible, offering both a page-turning narrative and a window into the daily pressures, loyalties, and rivalries of colonial life. It is a work that rewards casual readers and classic¿literature collectors alike, with themes of identity, allegiance, and the cost of ambition. Its literary and historical significance endures: a bridge between early modern drama and modern suspense, a rare survivor from a vanished century. The text reads as both memoir and social portrait, a window onto colonial America adventures and the wider Atlantic world, rendered with restraint and consequence that will please students of literature and connoisseurs alike. Selling points: Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
