Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Man Who Dared: A Historical Romance of the Time of Robespierre In justice to himself, the author of the following historical romance is anxious that its readers shall understand that he would never have ventured to write it, if he had known that the great Sardou had chosen the same theme for his wonderful tragedy, "Robespierre," which Henry Irving is now playing with such success in London. Having always been a delighted reader of French History, he naturally perceived the splendid possibilities for an interesting novel which the thrilling events connected with Robespierre´s last days of despotism presented. For many months, the plot and incidents of his narrative gradually assumed definite form in his mind, and, when he was called upon to produce a short novel for a current publication, he chose Robespierre´s downfall as his theme. The romance, as it originally appeared, having excited some attention from those who read it, he resolved to make many radical alterations in the plot, to endue it with greater historical value, and to enlarge it to its present dimensions.
