The Crimes of Ali Pacha and Others (Classic Reprint) Paperback -
by Alexandre Dumas
From the publisher
Excerpt from The Crimes of Ali Pacha and Others Dumas had long promised himself the pilgrimage which he thus accomplished. Marshal Brune was one of the few friends who had remained faithful to his father, General Dumas, when, having taken the side of Kleber in Egypt, he fell into disgrace with Napoleon. After the death of General Dumas, the Marshal was the only man who had ventured, uselessly however, to ask the Emperor for our author's ad mission into a school of musketry, and up to 1814 had given his mother and himself touching if barren proofs of his regard. In the confusion of the double Restoration they had lost sight of him, and did not know where he was; when suddenly a cry resounded through France that Marshal Brune had been assassinated!
