The Triumph of the Scarlet Pimpernel

by Emma Orczy · first published 1922

The Triumph of the Scarlet Pimpernel, first published in 1922, is a book in the series about the Scarlet Pimpernel's adventures by Baroness Orczy. Again Orczy interweaves historic fact with fiction, this time through the real-life figures of Thérésa Cabarrus and Jean-Lambert Tallien, inserting the Scarlet Pimpernel as an instigator of the role Tallien played in the Thermidorian Reaction of July 1794.
