141 Years Late Is Better Than Never

Congratulations are in order to Alexandre Dumas for his new book released only 141 years after his previous books. Dumas, famous for novels such as The Three Musketeers, The Count of Monte Cristo, and The Man In The Iron Mask, had nearly completed this final novel, The Knight of Sainte-Hermine at his death in 1870. The manuscript was discovered in 1988 and has now been finished by Claude Schopp and recently released in the U.S. (It has been available for a few years in France already).
