LOUIS HENRI BOUSSENARD 4 October 1847 Escrennes Loiret 11 September 1910 Orléans was a French author of adventure novels dubbed "the French Rider Haggard" during his lifetime but better known today in Eastern Europe than in Francophone countries. As a measure of his popularity 40 volumes of his collected works were published in Imperial Russia in 1911. A physician by profession Boussenard travelled throughout the French colonies especially in Africa. He was drafted during the Franco-Prussian War but soon capitulated to the Prussian soldiers a bitter experience that could explain a nationalist flavour present in many of his novels. Some of his books demonstrate a certain prejudice against Britain and America a fact which likely contributed to his obscurity and lack of translations in the English-speaking world. The author's picaresque humour flourished in his earliest books À travers Australie: Les dix millions de l'Opossum rouge 18791 Le tour du monde d'un gamin de Paris 1880 Les Robinsons de la Guyane 1882 Aventures périlleuses de trois Français au pays des diamants 1884 set in a mysterious cavern underneath the Victoria Falls The Crusoes of Guyana; or The White Tiger 1885 and Les étrangleurs du Bengale 1901. Boussenard's best-known book Le Capitaine Casse-Cou 1901 was set at the time of the Boer War. L'île en feu 1898 fictionalized Cuba's struggle for independence. Aspiring to emulate Jules Verne Boussenard also turned out several science fiction novels notably Les secrets de monsieur Synthèse 1888 OFFERED ABOVE and Dix mille ans dans un bloc de glace 1890 both translated by Brian Stableford in 2013 under the title Monsieur Synthesis ISBN 978-1-61227-161-3.
