Henri Arnaud or The Glorious Return of the Waldenses of Piedmont to Their Native Valleys in the Years 1689-90: A Poem is a book written by Arthur Robert Pennington in 1862. The book is a narrative poem that tells the story of Henri Arnaud and his leadership of the Waldenses, a group of Protestants in the Piedmont region of Italy, during their return to their homeland after being exiled for their religious beliefs. The Waldenses faced many challenges during their journey, including harsh weather conditions and attacks from the French army, but they persevered and were ultimately successful in reclaiming their land.
