This book is a must-read for anyone interested in French literature, Romanticism, or the life and work of Alfred De Musset.The author describes the poet's early years, and gives several very pretty anecdotes of his childhood. Alfred de Musset was born in 1810, in the middle of old Paris, on a spot familiar to those many American visitors who wander across the Seine, better and better pleased as they go, to the museum of the H�����tel de Cluny. The house in which Musset's parents lived was close to this beautiful monument---a happy birthplace for a poet; but both the house and the street have now disappeared. M. Paul de Musset does not relate that his brother began to versify in his infancy; but Alfred was indeed hardly more than an infant when he achieved his first success.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
