DUMAS ALEXANDRE: Fils (1824-1895) French Author and Dramatist. A lengthy A.L.S., A. Dumas, seven pages, 8vo, n.p. Puys, close to Dieppe, n.d. [1868], to Emile Deschanel, in French. Dumas thanks his correspondent for his fair critics which prove he has fully read and understood his thoughts and states in part `In my mind of son of a romantic are still hanging remnants of a former language. I get rid of it as much as I can, but may be due to a filial respect I cannot do so abruptly. And then there is a meeting shock between too old words and too young words, of a form which disappear and a form which starts.´ One of the double 8vo pages bears a blind embossed monogramme to the heading with the initials ''N.D'', the other bears the initials ''A.D''. VG £150-200
