The latest volume of "Masters of Adventure" includes Paul Féval's novel "The Golden Barrel," part of a series of captivating stories told by the fireside of a beautiful marquise. Upon learning of the wild and, as she sees it, utterly implausible case of the "Golden Knives," the marquise tells her own, more truthful story about a man who despised adventure and set off to the ends of the earth along a route sketched in blood on a handkerchief.
Unbelievable, but true—echoes of some scenes, images, and even phrases from "The Golden Barrel" can be heard in Louis Boussenard's novels "The Diamond Thieves" and "Captain Daredevil," written much later. The edition is adorned with a set of original newspaper illustrations. This is the first time the novel has been published in Russian.
