Atala (French Edition)

François-René de Chateaubriand's "Atala," edited and with notes by Robin Anita White of Nicholls State University, is Number 22 in European Masterpieces's French Classics Series (Molière & Co.). This edition is designed for students of French. The introduction, footnotes, and side glosses are in English, but the text itself is in the original French. White gives an interesting and useful background to this early Romantic novella about an 18th century Frenchman's dealings with a Native American tribe. Illustrations by Gustav Doré.
