Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

About the Author

One of the key members of the group that formed around Apollinaire, a painter as well as a poet, Jacob lived in extreme poverty, working all manner of jobs throughout his life. Although born Jewish, he converted to Catholicism in 1915, six years after having a vision of Christ. In 1921 he moved from Paris to the small village of Saint Benoit-sur-Loire, close to a Benedictine church, where he remained until his arrest by the Nazis in February1944. He died of bronchial pneumonia the following month in a concentration camp at Drancy, near Paris.
