Hardcover / Hardback. Etat : Very Good. No Jacket. First edition. Hardback. An account of the life of the woman known as Charlotte de Corday, with which are interwoven the lives of the man she killed and the man who died for championing her memory. Jean-Paul Marat had never heard of Charlotte de Corday when she entered his presence on July 13, 1793. Jean-Adam Lux had never heard of Charlotte de Corday until she had only a few days to live; he never saw her until she was on her way to death. Jean-Jacques Rousseau's teachings inflamed, exalted and brought together these 3 people of different races, to their destruction and their immortality. The Sardinian French cosmopolitan, the pure-bred Norman, the German from Mayence, had each in several ways and according to a peculiar temperament, imbibed the doctines of Rousseau, and the two latter had brooded long and deeply over the book that had been the inspiration of the Genevan watchmaker's son - 'Plutarch's Lives of Illustrious Men.' Illus., Chronological Table + Bibliog. 336pp. 8vo. h/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate, plus that of a previous owner.

Hardcover. Etat : Poor. xii, 336 p. front., pl., ports. 22 cm. ; LCCN: 35-10719 ; OCLC: 1003026 ; LC: DC146.C8; Dewey: 920.7 ; "This seems a far cry from horror stories, particularly as it reveals the author in the role of sound scholar and thoughtful biographer. His subject is Charlotte de Corday; his period, the French Revolution. Charlotte de Corday was a country girl, who would have been a nun had the Revolution not caught her: in its trammels. A Girondist -- a fanatic -- she nursed the growing hatred for the tyrant . Marat, and killed him in his bath. Shearing has done an extraordinary job -- presented a vigorous picture of the period, and a succession of brilliant pen portraits of leading spirits."--Kirkus reviews ; purple cloth with gold lettering ; no dustjacket ; spine sunned ; slight knock ; repair to hinges ; reading copy ; POOR.
