Comments/Synopsis : Until the time she is eleven years old, Marie Hamilton lives a peaceful life with her grandmother, parents and younger brother on the family estate in England; however, her life changes dramatically when her family moves to France just before the start of the French Revolution. Marie's father is returning to France at the invitation of Louis XVI to reclaim his title and estates as the Comte de Grandville. The family arrives at the magnificent palace of Versailles and quickly becomes part of privileged court life. All is not well, though, in France and only months later the oppressed and starving French people rise up against the Nobility. When the enraged mob storms through the palace, Marie and her family are rescued from grave danger by a strange twist of events, but Marie's story of courage, self-sacrifice and true nobility is not yet over! ******************************************************** I ended my homeschooling career after 32 years of homeschooling my children. Now, a few years later, I am beginning to divest myself of our huge library of thousands of books. I will be listing books here as I have time and energy! :) I’ll combine on shipping to save you money. I will not sell any listing for less than $2 because when I sell for $2, I end up profiting only 82 cents after paying my eBay fees and shipping. The way you can really save money on my books is to buy more than one. The postage on many books is more than what I ask for the book. By buying a number of books you will save a LOT on shipping and thus pay less per book. Ships from El Paso, TX within 24 hours. All purchases go to help support our missionary work here on the Mexican border. Thanks in advance. Everything I sell is from a smoke-free environment.
