Not a reprint. Green cloth covers with gilt to front and spine. "Sad as the gates of Prison", is an old French proverb which must once have had an aching significance. To the citizen of Paris it must have been familiar above most other popular sayings, since there was the menace of a prison door at almost every turn! The Dungeons of Old Paris were well-nigh as thick as its churches or its taverns. Until the 1789 revolution, The King was the great gaoler-in-chief of the State, but there were countless other gaolers. The terrible prisons of State, two of the most renowned of which, the Dungeon of Vincennes and the Bastille, have been partially restored. The towers and ramparts of the host of lesser prisons are equally important. . ; Black andwhite; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 265 pages .
