Produktbeschreibung

Set out for a rollicking good time with Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870), the renowned French author who created timeless classics such as "The Three Musketeers", "The Count of Monte Cristo" and "The Man in the Iron Mask". "Les Compagnons de Jehu" ("The Companions of Jehu") tale is based loosely on a historical account of a band of young aristocrats-turned-highwaymen that continuously steals the money of the Directoire in order to finance the restoration of monarchy and who fought their way to freedom after being jailed on dubious charges. Packed with tragedy, political intrigues, noble heroes, love, and derring-do, this exciting historical tale constitutes a must-read for fans of Dumas's work, and would make for a great addition to any bookshelf.
