Book Overview
Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read A popular bestseller since its publication in 1844, The Count of Monte Cristo is one of the great page-turning thrillers of all time. Set against the tumultuous years of the post-Napoleonic era, Alexandre Dumas's grand historical romance recounts the swashbuckling adventures of Edmond Dantès, a dashing young sailor falsely accused of treason. The story of his long imprisonment, dramatic escape, and carefully wrought revenge offers up a vision of France that has become immortal. As Robert Louis Stevenson declared, "I do not believe there is another volume extant where you can breathe the same unmingled atmosphere of romance."

Good book, not correct conditioning
Published by Ana , 21 days ago
This book was purchased for my child and I am familiar with the story, but it was listed as good condition and when it arrived the front and back covers show quite a bit of wear and tear, with a corner already close to tearing off. As this is for a school reading assignment I did not need it in new condition, but an honest assessment would have been appreciated.
