This book contains a historic travelogue diary written by a wealthy French woman in the mid-nineteenth century. It is edited by Alexandre Dumas, and translated by Marguerite E. Wilbur. This fantastically detailed and vivid chronicle describes Madame Giovanni's exotic travels in New Zealand, Tahiti, New Caledonia, the Hawaiian Islands, California, and Mexico. The Journal of Madame Giovanni will appeal to lovers of travel writing, and would make for a great addition any collection. Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) was a famous French writer. He is best remembered for his exciting romantic sagas, including The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo. Despite making a great deal of money from his writing, Dumas was almost perpetually penniless thanks to his extravagant lifestyle. His novels have since been translated into nearly a hundred different languages, and have inspired over two hundred motion pictures. Many vintage texts such as this 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.
