Alexandre Dumas "fils" was the illegitimate son of a Paris dressmaker and the renowned author of "The Three Musketeers." Dumas "pre" took him from his mother as a child (French law then allowed that), and gave the child a marvelous education at schools that included the Institution Goubaux and the Collge Bourbon -- but he could not take from the child the memory of his mother. Dumas "fils" spent much of his life writing of the loss of her -- in works like "Camille" and this novel, "The Son of Clemenceau." Alexandre Dumas "fils" died at Marly-le-Roi, Yvelines, on November 27, 1895; he is buried in the Cimetire de Montmartre in Paris.

"The Last Vendée; or, the She-Wolves of Machecoul" by Alexandre Dumas Alexandre Dumas, also known as Alexandre Dumas père, was a French novelist and playwright. This compilation volume takes place between 1831 and 1832 in Breton. Mary and Bertha, twin girls and the illegitimate children of a former royalist fighter are nicknamed "the she-wolves of Machecoul" and are drawn into a conflict where the Duchess of Berry wants to awaken the royalist spirit so his son can have the throne. While fighting, they both meet and fall in love with Baron Michel Logerie as well.
Although a major star in the 1910s, Theda Bara--known as "The Vamp"--was largely neglected until the 1990s, when her fame began to resurface. Since then, there have been biographies, documentaries and other works that have brought the silent film actress back into the spotlight, including a painstaking stills reconstruction of her lost epic Cleopatra. This is a complete examination of Bara's more than 40 films, as well as her theater and radio appearances, down to the smallest detail. With the vast majority of Bara's films considered lost, it is a particularly valuable resource for fans and scholars, and includes information about each film's genesis, director, plot, censorship problems, and critical and public reactions. Also included is a biographical overview, with many illuminating anecdotes.
