The narrative explores the tumultuous history of the Huguenots, French Protestants who faced fluctuating acceptance in society, culminating in the tragic massacre on Saint Bartholomew's Day in 1572. Following years of conflict, the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 led to mass emigration as Huguenots sought refuge in countries like the United States and England. Samuel Smiles, a Scottish social reformer, admired their industrious culture, linking their values of frugality and hard work to his beliefs about poverty and responsibility.
