Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Company of Jehu, Vol. 1
IT is about a year since my old friend, Jules Simon, author of Devoir asked me to write him a novel for the J our nal pour Tous. I told him the subject of one which I had in my mind. It suited him; and we came to an agreement on the spot.
The action took place from 17 91 to 1793, and the first chapter Opened at Varennes the evening of the king's arrest.
I told Jules Simon that however impatient the Journal might be, I must have a fortnight before I began the book. I wanted to go to Varennes I had never been to Varennes.
