About this work

Description

Comment moururent les rois de France. First published as a "Feuilleton hebdomadaire" in the Moniteur Medical Paris, 1914, in 16 parts. In the form of cuttings pasted down, and bound.

Two of the smaller volumes contain a holograph MS. index by the author. The larger volume also contains cuttings of reviews of Le nu au theatre, second edition, published in 1914, in collaboration with Lucien Nass. There are a few inserted illustrations, cuttings, etc.: and some holograph notes and additions.

In the larger volume are two inserted letters and a postcard to the author from Paul Michaut and Lucien Nass. This work devotes considerable space to attacking the book Morts mystérieuses de l'histoire by Augustin Cabanès [cf. MSS.5053-5056].
