TAILIEUCHUNG - Dumas' Paris

There have been many erudite works, in French and other languages, describing the antiquities and historical annals of Paris from the earliest times; and in English the mid-Victorian era turned out--there are no other words for it--innumerable "books of travel" which recounted alleged adventures, strewn here and there with bits of historical lore and anecdotes, none too relevant, and in most cases not of undoubted authenticity. Of the actual life of the people in the city of light and learning, from the times of Napoleon onward, one has to go to the fountainhead of written records, the acknowledged masterworks in the language of the country. | Dumas Paris by Francis Miltoun 1 Dumas Paris by Francis Miltoun The Project Gutenberg EBook of Dumas Paris by Francis Miltoun This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.
