Ange Pitou is a historical novel written by Alexandre Dumas. Set during the French Revolution, the story follows the adventures of Ange Pitou, a young man from a small village who becomes involved in the events of the revolution. Pitou is a loyal supporter of the revolutionaries and becomes a key figure in the storming of the Bastille. Along the way, he falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Catherine, who is also involved in the revolution. The novel is filled with action, adventure, and romance, as well as vivid descriptions of the political and social upheaval of the time. Dumas' masterful storytelling brings to life the drama and excitement of one of the most important periods in French history.Moreover, notwithstanding the terror generally inspired by the sight of monsters, she felt a desire to look at, and perhaps even to admire, this extraordinary man, who by a crime had infused his vile blood into the most aristocratic veins in France, --this man who appeared to have organized the Revolution, in order that it should open the gates of the Bastille for him, in which, but for that Revolution, he would have remained immured forever, to teach him that a plebeian must remember nothing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work
