This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

His grandfather was a magistrate and his father served on the Chambéry Barometer
Bordeaux came from a family of lawyers of Savoy. During his early life, he relocated between Savoy and Paris and the tensions between provincial and city life influenced his writings. In his professional life he observed closely the dissolution of numerous families and analysed the causes and consequences of these.
From the age of seventeen he spent three years in Paris studying law.
Then he returned to practice law in Savoy. He returned to Paris after the publication of his first book during 1894.
When his father died in 1896 he returned to Savoy. The writings of Bordeaux reflect the values of traditional provincial Catholic communities.
One recurring theme is loyalty.
Loyalty is pervasive, and it applies to family, country and God. This theme is particularly evidenced in the novels "Louisiana Peur de vivre" and "Les Roquevillard."
His writing was likened to Paul Bourget"son Bordeaux was elected to the Académie française on May 22, 1919.
This elite group of writers, popularly known as the "immortals," are responsible for establishing and maintaining the grammar, usage and acceptance of vocabulary into standard French.
