The Works of Alexander Dumas in Thirty Volumes - Vol I - The Page of the Duke of Savoy - Illustrated with Drawings on Wood by Eminent French and Ameri in Chattanooga, TN
This book contains the first volume of Alexandre Dumas's 1891 novel, "The page of the Duke of Savoy". It is the fictionalised tale a woman who is forced to impersonate a man in order to remain by the side of her beloved Duke. A tense marriage of mystery and romance, this masterful story will appeal to lovers of historical fiction, and constitutes a must-read for anyone who has read and enjoyed Dumas's work. Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) was a famous French writer. He is best remembered for his exciting romantic sagas, including "The Three Musketeers" and "The Count of Monte Cristo". Despite making a great deal of money from his writing, Dumas was almost perpetually penniless thanks to his extravagant lifestyle. His novels have since been translated into nearly a hundred different languages, and have inspired over two hundred motion pictures. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
