Young Adult Historical Novels: The Eighteenth Century


This page lists historical novels for young adult readers set in eighteenth-century Europe and North America.

American Revolution fife and drum players

The eighteenth century was a time of revolutions. The Scottish Jacobite Risings tried to free Scotland from English rule and put on the Scottish throne the grandson of their King James VII, Charles Edward Stuart, known as "Bonnie Prince Charlie." Although they failed, two other revolutions succeeded.

In 1776, the American Colonies rebelled. And in 1789, after the creation of the independent United States, the French rebelled against their monarch and created a republic noted for its violence against the former aristocrats. In 1799, Napoleon came to power in France, bringing a welcome moderation to the French government but spreading warfare across Europe in the Napoleonic Wars.

It was an era of sea power, so many novels set in the eighteenth century are about pirates and warfare at sea. In America, colonists and Native Americans struggled to understand each other and get along peacefully. African men, women and children were enslaved and brought to America, mostly to work on Southern plantations, where they longed for freedom.
