P. R. James is a historical novel written in the early 19th century. The book focuses on the life and struggles of Mary of Burgundy and the political turmoil surrounding her era, particularly the revolt in Ghent. The narrative is populated by various characters, including nobles and citizens that navigate the trials of war and loyalty amidst feudal struggles. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the serene beauty of a forest in the autumn of 1456, where a young boy named Hugh, related to Mary, is portrayed in deep despair after the loss of his family's castle. His solitude is interrupted by a party of knights, leading to his feelings of betrayal and the stark realities of his situation. The narrative then shifts to introduce characters such as Matthew Gournay, a soldier who offers his support to the young boy, hinting at themes of camaraderie and the harsh consequences of political strife. Hugh's resilience and the unfolding intrigues surrounding the revolt in Ghent set a compelling stage for the story to evolve. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
