Download: $2.49 CELEBRATED CRIMES by ALEXANDRE DUMAS
The 8 Volume Celebrated Crimes series written by Alexandre Dumas is a "True Crime" classic. He minced no words and spared no language to describe the violent scenes of a violent time.
The stories in this series are based on historical record. The subjects which he has chosen, however, are of both historic and dramatic importance, and they have the added value of giving the modern reader a clear picture of the state of semi-lawlessness which existed in Europe, during the middle ages.
