Over dit e-boek
"Hector Dunoisse, the hero of the story, aged, paralytic and near to death, honored and respected by Kings and Emperors for his great life work for the relief of the wounded in war. Time is then set back seventy years, and we find him in about the year 1840, a boy at the Military School in Paris, fighting a duel with a comrade, de Moulny, who is wounded owing to Hector’s accidentally falling. Hector takes an oath never to touch a penny of the money infamously acquired, while de Moulny in return swears to be his friend till death. Shortly afterwards they are estranged by the circulation of a false report that Hector’s fall was intentional and that he had wounded de Moulny by a trick. His vow places him in sore financial straits, but he makes rapid progress in his profession and becomes adjutant of his regiment."--Bookseller's website.
