Perfect for readers craving authentic European history and the origins of classic adventure tales. ## Description WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR BIOGRAPHY • ONE OF ESQUIRE ’S BEST BIOGRAPHIES OF ALL TIME General Alex Dumas is a man almost unknown today, yet his story is strikingly familiar — because his son, the novelist Alexandre Dumas, used his larger-than-life feats as inspiration for such classics as The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers . But, hidden behind General Dumas's swashbuckling adventures was an even more incredible secret: he was the son of a black slave — who rose higher in the white world than any man of his race would before our own time. Born in Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), Alex Dumas made his way to Paris, where he rose to command armies at the height of the Revolution — until he met an implacable enemy he could not defeat. The Black Count is simultaneously a riveting adventure story, a lushly textured evocation of 18th-century France, and a window into the modern world’s first multi-racial society. TIME magazine called The Black Count "one of those quintessentially human stories of strength and courage that sheds light on the historical moment that made it possible." But it is also a heartbreaking story of the enduring bonds of love between a father and son. Review: Good book 👍🏻 - Good product. Good book. 👍🏻 Review: ben raccontato! - Ho conosciuto l'autore ai tempi che ha lavorato ancora su questo libro. Nel maggio 2007, durante il suo percorso italico da Taranto a Bolzano per ripercorrere i luoghi dove il nostro eroe aveva combattuto e dove è rimasto prigioniero, ho avuto modo di intrattenermi con il Reiss, purtroppo senza essere in grado di potergli fornire materiale utile alle sue ricerche. Leggendo il libro mi sono reso conto che di ricerche approfondite si tratta, perché tutto ciò di cui scrive è ben documentato - il libro non si basa su congetture o dicerie, ma su riscontri documetali verificabili. Un bel libro su un personaggio (Dumas nonnno) che ha ispirato sia i romanzi sui 3 moschettieri che il conte di Montecristo. A quanto vedo non esiste per il momento un'edizione italiana. ## Features - Broadway Books ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #444,179 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #157 in European Literature (Books) #1,803 in Biographies & Autobiographies (Books) #1,857 in European History (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,422 Reviews | ## Images ![The Black Count: Glory, Revolution, Betrayal, and the Real Count of Monte Cristo - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81gitVEbdaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book 👍🏻 *by T***N on 28 April 2026* Good product.
