Born at Montargis in 1644, he became a captain in the Regiment de Champagne, and later in life was a prisoner in the Bastille for 9 years. Nearly all his works claim to be authentic memoirs of some well known character of his day. The 'Memoirs' are a masterpiece. Alexandre Dumas recognized it as such, and from these pages come the material and inspiration for his immortal 'Three Musketeers'. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
