About This Novel
This is a work by the famous French writer Jules Verne. For readers who like Verne's works, this book is worth reading. During the Greek people's struggle for freedom, French officer Henri d'Albalay came to Greece to fight. During this period, she fell in love with Hadzina, the banker's daughter, and the two fell in love. After Hadzina's father died, she inherited a large inheritance. After learning that this huge sum of money was not legal income, she donated all of it to save the Greeks who were captured by the enemy during the war and became slaves. In the process, she herself unfortunately became a slave. Nicolas Scotta, the captain of the Calista, was a notorious pirate leader. He didn't know the inside story and thought Hadzina was still rich, so he pursued her desperately. Henri d'Albalay started a long-term rivalry with Nicola Scotta for a just cause and for the woman he loved. In a slave-trading transaction, Henri d'Albarre and Nicolas Scotta competed for the price. At the last moment, Henri d'Albalay succeeded, so Nicolas Scotta launched a pirate attack. During the battle, Henri d'Albalay encountered many dangers, but finally killed Nicolas Scotta and won the beauty. The novel is set against the backdrop of the War of Independence. Through the love story of the joys and sorrows between the Greek girl Harjoona and the French officer Henri Dabale who aided the Greek Volunteer Army, it eulogized the Greek national heroes in the War of Independence, whipped the scum who betrayed the motherland, and condemned Turkey's aggression. The plot of the novel is twists and turns, exciting, and also interspersed with a lot of historical and geographical knowledge.
