Book Overview

The Story of Francois Villon, written by George Morehead in 1902, is a biographical account of the life of the French poet, thief, and vagabond, Francois Villon. The book provides a detailed description of Villon's life, from his early years as an orphan to his eventual rise as a prominent poet in Paris. Morehead also delves into Villon's criminal activities, including theft and murder, and his eventual imprisonment and exile from France. The book explores Villon's complex personality and his relationships with the people around him, including his fellow poets, his lovers, and his enemies. Morehead uses historical records and Villon's own poetry to paint a vivid picture of life in 15th-century France, and the challenges faced by a man like Villon who lived on the fringes of society. Overall, The Story of Francois Villon is a fascinating and well-researched account of one of France's most notorious literary figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
