About the Author

Alexandre Dumas was born July 24, 1802, at Villiers-Cotterets, France, the son of Napoleon's famous mulatto general, Thomas-Alexandre Dumas, who eventually fell from favor and died impoverished when his son was only four. Alexandre Dumas began writing at an early age and saw his first success in a play he wrote entitled Henri III et sa Cour (1829). A prolific author who also had to battle racism throughout his life, Dumas waspolitically active, taking part in the Revolution of 1830 and later working for the cause of Italian unification. Among his most famoushistorical novels, which he often wrote with collaborators (primarily Auguste Maquet) and which were typicallyserialized in thepress, are The Three Musketeers (1844), The Count of Monte Cristo (1844-45), and The Man in theIron Mask (1848-50). Dumas made and lost several fortunes, and died penniless on December 5, 1870.
