Produktbeschreibung
This antiquarian volume contains Alexandre Dumas's 1893 historical novel, "The Conspirators - Or, The Chevalier D'harmental". A thrilling adventure packed with romance, intrigue, misfortune, and love, it tells the story of collusion between the church and royal families in a fierce battle for power. A fantastic page-turner characteristic of Dumas's masterful story-telling abilities, "The Conspirators" constitutes a must-read for a fan of historical fiction. 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 decidedly extravagant lifestyle. His novels have been translated into nearly a hundred different languages, and have inspired over 200 motion pictures. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing this antiquarian book in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
