Mount, Taavi Kalju and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "History of the Rise of the Huguenots, Vol. 1" by Henry Martyn Baird is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work examines the emergence and development of the Huguenots, the French Protestants, from the early stages of the Reformation up to the Edict of January in 1562. It aims to provide a thorough and scholarly overview of how the Reformation took root in France, chronicling the theological, social, and political conflicts that defined this transformative period in French history. The opening of this volume sets the stage for an in-depth exploration of the historical context of the 16th century, covering the political landscape under kings like Francis I and the emergence of Reformed doctrines. Baird highlights the initial challenges faced by the early Huguenots, detailing their persecution and struggle for recognition amid the complexities of French royalty and society. The narrative frames the growing strength and organization among the Huguenots, illustrating their journey from obscurity to a distinct religious identity, setting the foundation for the battles and developments to follow in subsequent chapters.
