My Old Cousin is a novel written by Lister and published in 1819. The story takes place in Cochin-China, a French colony in Southeast Asia during the early 19th century. The protagonist is a young man named Charles who travels to Cochin-China to visit his cousin, an old and eccentric man named Monsieur de la Touche. Through Charles' eyes, the reader is introduced to the culture, customs, and people of Cochin-China. The novel explores themes of colonialism, cultural differences, and the clash between tradition and modernity. As Charles spends time with his cousin, he begins to uncover secrets about Monsieur de la Touche's past and his involvement in the colonial administration. The novel is a vivid portrayal of life in Cochin-China during this period and offers a unique perspective on the French colonial experience.Three Volumes In One.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
