QR code
"Two Royal Foes" by Eva Annie Madden is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set during the Napoleonic Wars, focusing on the experiences of a young girl named Bettina and her grandfather, Hans, against the backdrop of impending conflict with the French army led by Napoleon. The novel explores themes of war, family, and bravery as it unfolds during a turbulent period in German history. At
the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Bettina and her grandfather, who are making their way through the forest to visit Bettina's godmother in Jena. Throughout their journey, the innocent and playful nature of the young girl contrasts sharply with the looming threat of war, especially when they encounter a French officer and hear tales of Napoleon. The grandfather recounts stories of Frederick Barbarossa, instilling in Bettina a sense of hope for a future where they might conquer their foes. The opening chapters establish a tone of uncertainty and fear as the family braces for the impact of war on their lives, while also highlighting the warmth of their familial bond amid growing tensions.
