Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Robert Ferguson, The Plotter: Or The Secret Of The Rye-House Conspiracy And The Story Of A Strange Career (1887) is a historical non-fiction book written by James Ferguson. The book tells the story of Robert Ferguson, a Scottish political activist and conspirator who played a key role in t…he Rye-House Plot, a failed assassination attempt on King Charles II and his brother James, Duke of York, in 1683. The book provides a detailed account of Ferguson's life, from his early years in Scotland to his involvement in the Rye-House Plot and subsequent exile in the Netherlands. It also explores Ferguson's complex personality and motivations, as well as his relationships with other key figures in the conspiracy, such as the Whig politician Lord William Russell and the radical writer Algernon Sidney.Through extensive research and analysis of primary sources, Ferguson sheds light on the political and social context of the Rye-House Plot, as well as the wider historical significance of the conspiracy. The book also offers insights into the turbulent political climate of late seventeenth-century England, marked by tensions between the monarchy and the emerging Whig opposition, as well as religious conflicts and economic crises.Overall, Robert Ferguson, The Plotter: Or The Secret Of The Rye-House Conspiracy And The Story Of A Strange Career (1887) is a compelling and informative account of a key moment in English history, and a fascinating portrait of one of its most enigmatic figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
