Dumas, Alexandre. Translated by R.W. Plummer and A. Craig Bell. Edited by A. Craig Bell. ALEXANDRE DUMAS' ADVENTURES IN SWITZERLAND.
Chilton, Philadelphia, 1960, first American edition.
246 pp, 8vo (8 1/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. "Alexandre Dumas was a young man of thirty when he made an extended (and politically necessary) trip to Switzerland. In Paris he had already scored a certain success of scandal and sensation with his Romantic plays. But it was with his first travel book that he received the serious critical praise that foreshadowed his later success in the historical novel of adventure....Having just survived an attack of cholera and an accidental glassful of ether, Dumas had taken a week to write a very profitable play, made more imaginative by his delerium. At this point a mistaken newssheet account of his arrest and execution made it clear that a trip out of the country was in order. It was the e nsuing trip to Switzerland which provided the basis of this book. Villages, towns and cities, sights and scenes and people met along the way - all are the matter of masterful description and humorous anecdote. Whether fishing in an icy moun t a i n s t ream, visiting the morgue of the Grande Chartreuse, or merely chatting with other guests at an inn, Dumas found inspiration for a facile pen....More than an account of a journey, 'Adventures in Switzerland' is a rare collection of anecd ot e an d h um or ." Very light browning and very tiny foxing marks on top of textblock, minor wrinkling at top/bottom of spine. Dust jacket haslight edge wrinkling - mainly at top/bottom of spine, very light browning to edges, light rubbing/soili ng - mai nl y on rea r panel, small light blue rub mark on front panel.

Collins' Clear-Type, London, n.d.
444 pp, 16mo (6 1/8" H), thin burgundy leather over card covers/spine - gold lettering and decoration on spine, top edge gilt - in publisher's clear dust wrapper and slipcase. Burgundy endpapers, sepiatone plates, including frontispiece, decorated title page, integral ribbon bookmark. One of 'The (French) Regency Romances'. "Dumas has chosen the conspiracy hatched by the Prince de Cellamare, Cardinal Alberoni, and the Duchess du Maine to seize the person of Philippe, Duc d'Orleans, and supp lant him in the regency by the Duc de Maine, a natural but legitimatised son of the late king. For some reason this affair was never thoroughly cleared up, and thus the novelist, though working in a very well-known frame, can be caught tripping on l y by the learned. He beguiles us by giving to the instigators of the plot the roles they filled in life while carrying out the imaginary details by men of his own invention." Very light browning to edges of text block, minor wear at corners and at bottom of spine. Dust wrapper is rubbed and has one 1 1/2' tear and small chip.
