Lysbeth

The Netherlands under the Duke of Alva - the Inquisition, the siege of Leyden, and the sea beggars cutting the dykes. Haggard wrote the siege from the chronicles; it is his best European novel. This edition carries 39 bound plates after painters including Edvard Munch, Justus van Gent and Lucas de Heere, alongside 21 in-text illustrations restored and coloured for this volume.
