About the book: year / Boussenard left a very rich literary heritage: 41 novels (24 exotic, or adventure-geographical, 8 military-adventure, 5 social-adventurous and 4 science fiction), three large documentary works, as well as more than three dozen essays and stories. Focusing primarily on a young audience, the writer felt that he could not express himself fully, being constrained by the boundaries of the genre. Russian translations of Boussenaard's novels appeared, as a rule, immediately after the publication of his new books in France. In 1911, a collection of works by Louis Boussinard in 40 volumes was published as a supplement to the magazine “Nature and People” (St. Petersburg). Also, some works were republished during Soviet times. In France, the peak of popularity of the classic of adventure literature occurred in the period between the two world wars; since the mid-twentieth century, its legacy has been almost completely forgotten. In 1991-2001, the Moscow publishing house Ladomir published a complete collection of the writer’s novels in 30 volumes (32 books), in new translations. Contents: Unmercenary: 1.
