by Hugh Ross Williamson The Man in the Iron Mask
Who was this man who was kept in prison by Louis XIV for thirty-four years; who was always treated with the greatest respect and whose face no-one was ever allowed to see? Was he kept masked because of his tell-tale likeness to the King of France or— could it possibly have been-to the King ot England?
