Synopsis

This vintage book contains Alexandre Dumas’s historical chronicle “Massacres of the South – 1551-1815”. It was first published as part of his eight-volume series “Celebrated Crimes” (1839 – 1840), and recounts the fascinating story of the brutal battles fought in the south of France and Spain over two and a half centuries in the name of religion. A bloody story of reaction and reaction, revenge and retaliation, “Massacres of the South – 1551-1815” is highly recommended for those with an interest in European history, and is not to be missed by fans of Dumas’s seminal work. Many vintage texts such as “Massacres of the South” are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
