The Bravo is a historical novel written by James Fenimore Cooper, first published in 1831. Set in 18th-century Venice, it tells the story of a young American named Charles Waring, who becomes embroiled in the political and social intrigues of the city. Waring is initially welcomed into Venetian society but soon finds himself caught up in a web of corruption and violence. He becomes involved with a mysterious figure known as the Bravo, who is believed to be a hired assassin. As Waring tries to uncover the truth about the Bravo's identity, he is drawn deeper into a dangerous game of political and personal ambition. The novel explores themes of power, loyalty, and identity, and offers a vivid portrayal of Venetian society during a tumultuous period of its history.There was a movement of surprise among the clerks, who whispered together, and appeared to examine the papers in their hands with some haste and confusion. Glances were sent back at the judges, who sate motionless, wrapped in the impenetrable mystery of their functions. A secret sign, however, soon caused the armed attendants of the place to lead Antonio and his companion from the room.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
