The Saint's Tragedy: Or The True Story Of Elizabeth Of Hungary is a historical novel written by Charles Kingsley Jr. and published in 1848. The book tells the story of Elizabeth of Hungary, a 13th-century princess who dedicated her life to helping the poor and sick. The novel is set in Thuringia, Germany, where Elizabeth lives with her husband, Louis IV, and their children. Elizabeth is deeply religious and spends much of her time praying and helping those in need. However, her husband is not as devout and is often away on military campaigns. When Louis dies during one of his campaigns, Elizabeth is left to rule the kingdom on her own. She continues to help the poor and sick, even giving away her own clothes and food. However, her actions are met with resistance from her advisors, who believe that she is neglecting her duties as a ruler. The novel ends tragically, with Elizabeth dying at a young age due to illness. However, her legacy lives on, as she is remembered as a saint who dedicated her life to serving others. Overall, The Saint's Tragedy is a moving and inspiring story of a woman who defied societal expectations and devoted herself to helping those in need. It is a testament to the power of faith and selflessness, and a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
