| 520 | _a"Henry Smeaton: A Jacobite Story of the Reign of George the First" by G. P. R. James is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The narrative is set against the backdrop of early 18th-century England, particularly during the tumultuous period surrounding the Jacobite uprisings. The central character, Henry Smeaton, is depicted as a young man navigating the political intrigues of the time, while he grapples with his own loyalties and intentions amidst a society rife with conflict. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to a scene near St. James's Square, where Henry Smeaton is observed in conversation with a companion, Van Noost. Their dialogue reveals Smeaton's concerns about the political situation, including recent impeachments and the fickleness of public opinion. The conversation shifts into the dynamics of power and loyalty as they discuss Lord Oxford and the support for Jacobite ideals. The narrative then broadens to depict life in London, characterized by a bustling atmosphere and hints of Smeaton's motivations—a mix of personal and political. The beginning sets a tone of intrigue and foreshadows the complex challenges Smeaton will face as he becomes entangled in the political struggles of the day.
