Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of two families living in a small village in France, offering a poignant glimpse into the lives of peasants during the early 19th century. The author, through rich, evocative prose, transports us to a world of hard work, simple pleasures, and deep-seated belie…fs. We meet Father Cadet, a man obsessed with acquiring land, and his step-daughter Madeleine, whose life is defined by toil and hardship. Across the road lives Dame Marie, the wife of the village schoolmaster, and her daughter Mariette. Their lives are intertwined with Father Cadet's through a web of shared hardship and kindness. The book explores the profound bond between humans and the land they inhabit, with the author drawing parallels between the peasant's love for their fields and the mythical allure of water. The narrative delves into the themes of faith, poverty, and the complexities of human relationships, particularly within the context of a rural community. Through the author's vivid portrayals of these characters and their interconnected lives, we gain a unique understanding of the social and economic realities of pre-industrial France. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Small 8vo. Green textured blind-embossed cloth with gilt spine lettering. 400pp, (4pp ads). Very good. Text block tight and nice, with mildest edgewear only; boards quite attractive, with lightly-shellacked spine slightly chipped at head/foot and bearing hand-lettered paper shelf label near foot. First American editio…n of "Dieu et Diable," originally published in French in 1852. Front pastedown bears pencilled non-authorial gift inscription to "Mrs Wm. B. Allison / Presented by / a Friend." Tipped-in ad among front matter plugs "Memoirs of James Gordon Bennett and His Times" and another at rear on bright yellow stock advertises "Frank Leslie's Portfolio of Fancy Needlework." From the collection of William B. Allison (1829-1908), the powerful Iowa Republican who, as U.S. senator from that state (1873-1908), was one of the "big four" who controlled the Senate; as chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee for most of those years, he championed tariff legislation and co-authored the Bland-Allison Act of 1878; as member of the Senate Finance Committee he was often courted by U.S. presidents to hold cabinet positions. Early 20th century bookplate on front pastedown records "This book is part of Allison Memorial Collection Gift of Mrs. Jennie A. Brayton" and until deaccessioned was part of Allison's non-circulating collection at his hometown public library across the street from his Dubuque residence. Notes Leland L. Sage in his 1956 biography "William Boyd Allison: A Study in Practical Politics," Allison owned "hundreds of books on government, economics, history, banking, finance, and the tariff. An omnivorous reader, Allison doubtless read most of these volumes, if only for relaxation from the strain that accompanied his efforts to solve the many problems facing the Nation.".
