Alexandre Dumas' novel "The Countess de Monsoro" - one of the masterpieces of the great writer on a par with "The Three Musketeers" and "The Count of Monte Cristo". The action of this exciting love story takes place in the second half of the XVI century, during the religious wars and the reign of Henry III, the last king of the Valois dynasty. The plot centers on the adventures of two lovers: the noble Count de Bussy and Diana de Monsoro, who was forced to marry to save her honor and escape the encroachments of the king's brother. Inexhaustible imagination, a fast-paced narrative style, and a vividly and authentically drawn historical background are the ingredients that make up this exquisite literary dish for all lovers of historical-adventure literature. This edition reproduces the complete set of magnificent illustrations by the famous French artist Maurice Leloir (1853-1940), first published in the 1903 Paris edition.
