The first published translation into English of\u00a0Un Revenant, an 1884 romantic adventure written by R\u00e9mi Tremblay, a French-Canadian author who turned his own experiences as a teenaged enlistee in the Civil War into a story of two fascinating heroes. Tremblay served in the 14th US Regular Infantry, fought in the battles of Spottsylvania Court House, The Wilderness, Cold Harbor, and Petersburg, and was imprisoned in Libby prison; he describes the searing battlefield and prison scenes as he saw them.<\/p>\n

Part autobiography, part melodramatic love story,\u00a0Un Revenant\u00a0<\/em>was one of nine novels by Franco-Americans which were part of the 1975 to 1982 National Materials Development Center publication program. With this meticulous new translation, Tremblay’s novel can now be read in either French or English . . . or side by side. 6 historical prints and 1 photograph of M.
