Description
DUMAS (Alexandre). *Le Maître d’armes*. Paris, Michel Lévy Frères, 1859. In-12, (4)-313 pp. Contemporary brown half-shagreen, spine decorated with four raised bands and gilt panels. Memoirs of a Frenchman, a master-at-arms, in Russia at the time of Nicholas I’s accession to the throne. Dumas uses this historical melodrama as an opportunity to take the reader on a tour of Saint Petersburg, which he describes at length – an early draft of a travel guide that he would later expand upon in his *Voyage en Russie*. Attractively bound.
