A Widow's Vengeance after the Wars of Religion is a dramatic account of the impact of the Wars of Religion on daily life. Based on neglected archival sources and an exceptional criminal trial, it recovers the experiences of women, peasants, and foot soldiers, who are marginalized in most historical accounts.
