Red half-shagreen, spine decorated with five raised bands. First 12mo edition. A protégée of Alexandre Dumas, who published her work extensively in *Le Mousquetaire*. A translator from English, she asked Dumas to take credit for several novels (Ivanhoe, Robin Hood…); she was certainly more than just a translator and collaborator. Her own body of work is extensive.
