He arrived in the great city at five o'clock on a Sunday morning, was set down at No. 9 in the Rue du Bouloi, and from this place carried his parcel to his old hotel in the Rue des Vieux Augustins. Such was the modest entrance of the future owner of the splendid "Folly " at St. Germain, the builder of the great Theatre Historiquc, and the world-renowned literary "conjuror," to whom thousands owe a heavy debt for many a weary hour beguiled. Almost his first proceeding was to look over the list of the ministers, and he found that Victor, the Duke of Belluno, was Minister of War. His portfolio furnished him with an old letter of the marshal's to his father, thanking the general for some service. He sat down and prepared a modest application founded on this document. But he had even a letter card to play. There was DEGREES Jourdan, whose letters gave evidence of a friendship as warm as that of Damon for Pythias, to say nothing of Sebastiani, whose letter showed that he actually owed a command to the intercession of the general. There is some worldly knowledge to be gathered from this passage in Dumas's life, and not to be disdained by the reader, viz., that such weighty obligations are often a hindrance rather than a recommendation to the obtaining of favours from the great. He first went boldly to call on Jourdan, and sent up his name. He was admitted at once. But he saw a look of surprise on the marshal's face, who had some dim idea that this might be his old friend. He had never heard of his having a son, or did not choose to run the risk of being deceived. All the young man could say would not convince him, and he was dismissed coolly. Alexander, not a little discouraged, then passed to Sebastiani's hotel, whom he...

Download or read book The Red Sphinx written by Alexandre Dumas and published by Pegasus Books. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time in English in over a century, a new translation of the forgotten sequel to Dumas’s The Three Musketeers, continuing the dramatic tale of Cardinal Richelieu and his implacable enemies. In 1844, Alexandre Dumas published The Three Musketeers, a novel so famous and still so popular today that it scarcely needs introduction. Shortly thereafter he wrote a sequel, Twenty Years After, that resumed the adventures of his swashbuckling heroes. Later, toward the end of his career, Dumas wrote The Red Sphinx, another direct sequel to The Three Musketeers that begins, not twenty years later, but a mere twenty days afterward. The Red Sphinx picks up right where the The Three Musketeers left off, continuing the stories of Cardinal Richelieu, Queen Anne, and King Louis XIII—and introducing a charming new hero, the Comte de Moret, a real historical figure from the period. A young cavalier newly arrived in Paris, Moret is an illegitimate son of the former king, and thus half-brother to King Louis. The French Court seethes with intrigue as king, queen, and cardinal all vie for power, and young Moret soon finds himself up to his handsome neck in conspiracy, danger—and passionate romance! Dumas wrote seventy-five chapters of The Red Sphinx, all for serial publication, but he never quite finished it, and so the novel languished for almost a century before its first book publication in France in 1946. While Dumas never completed the book, he had earlier written a separate novella, The Dove, that recounted the final adventures of Moret and Cardinal Richelieu. Now for the first time, in one cohesive narrative, The Red Sphinx and The Dove make a complete and satisfying storyline—a rip-roaring novel of historical adventure, heretofore unknown to English-language readers, by the great Alexandre Dumas, king of the swashbucklers.

Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR BIOGRAPHY • ONE OF ESQUIRE’S BEST BIOGRAPHIES OF ALL TIME General Alex Dumas is a man almost unknown today, yet his story is strikingly familiar—because his son, the novelist Alexandre Dumas, used his larger-than-life feats as inspiration for such classics as The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers. But, hidden behind General Dumas's swashbuckling adventures was an even more incredible secret: he was the son of a black slave—who rose higher in the white world than any man of his race would before our own time. Born in Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), Alex Dumas made his way to Paris, where he rose to command armies at the height of the Revolution—until he met an implacable enemy he could not defeat. The Black Count is simultaneously a riveting adventure story, a lushly textured evocation of 18th-century France, and a window into the modern world’s first multi-racial society. TIME magazine called The Black Count "one of those quintessentially human stories of strength and courage that sheds light on the historical moment that made it possible." But it is also a heartbreaking story of the enduring bonds of love between a father and son.

Book excerpt: In 1799, however, Dumas left Egypt when Napoleon wanted him to remain with the army. This plunged Dumas deeply into the dungeon of Napoleon's disfavor. Later he was literally imprisoned in southern Italy until 1801. "Napoleon never forgave Dumas," Gallaher notes, "and even continued to punish his wife and children after his death.".
