About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Celebrated Crimes, Vol. 6: Part 3: Martin Guerre by Alexandre Dumas. (Translated by George Burnham Ives.) Read in French by John Van Stan Martin Guerre was a French peasant that, during a long absence, was famously impersonated in the 16th century. Although the real Martin Guerre is suspected of no serious crimes, his imposter, Arnaud du Tilh, engaged in fraud and adultery while pursuing false claims to the Guerre inheritance. Dumas later incorporates this celebrated crime into his novel “The Two Dianas.” - Summary by jvanstan
