Adelaide Or The Massacre Of St. Bartholomew: A Tale, Including Historical Anecdotes Of Henry The Great (1830) is a historical fiction novel written by Barbara Hofland. The book is set in France during the 16th century and revolves around the infamous Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Day in 1572.

Adelaide is taken in by a Catholic family and raised as their own, but she struggles to come to terms with her own beliefs and the horrors she has witnessed.
