The Toilers of the Sea
Victor Hugo
This facsimile edition of "The Toilers of the Sea" is a recent reprint of the original Harper & Brothers edition of 1867 with two engravings from original pictures by Gustave Dore.
Fleeing political persecution, in 1855, Victor Hugo found sanctuary on the Isle of Guernsey where he was surrounded by the most historic and picturesque of the Channel Islands.
The legends and lore of the islands sparked Hugo's imagination, resulting in one of his most unusual works. Setting mythical, romantic, and social themes against a backdrop of memorable descriptions, "The Toilers of the Sea" is a novel of epic proportions.
