Ange Pitou is a historical novel written by Alexandre Dumas. The story is set during the French Revolution and follows the adventures of Ange Pitou, a young peasant boy from the village of Villers-Cotter������ts. Ange becomes involved in the revolution after witnessing the storming of the Bastille, and soon finds himself in the midst of the chaos and violence of the time.As he becomes more deeply involved in the revolution, Ange meets a number of historical figures, including Georges Danton, Maximilien Robespierre, and Napoleon Bonaparte. He also falls in love with a young noblewoman, Am�����lie de Montrevel, and becomes embroiled in a dangerous plot to rescue her from the clutches of the revolutionaries.Throughout the novel, Dumas weaves together historical events and fictional characters to create a vivid and engaging portrait of the French Revolution. Ange Pitou is a thrilling adventure story that captures the spirit of the era and provides a fascinating glimpse into one of the most tumultuous 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.
