The original novel was considered so scandalous that Prévost was forced to amend the original manuscript; the text reproduced here is from the altered 1753 edition. A biographical introduction to the author is provided at the beginning of the volume. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in French literature.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAntoine-François Prévost F.
