The Nobleman of '89 is a historical novel by Abel Quinton, first published in 1874. The book is set during the French Revolution and follows the story of a nobleman named Raoul de Launay. Raoul is a member of the aristocracy who is forced to flee his home during the revolution. As he travels through France, he witnesses the violence and chaos of the revolution and becomes increasingly disillusioned with the ideals of the revolutionaries.The novel is a fictionalized account of the events of the French Revolution, with many historical figures and events woven into the story.
