The Minister of Police (Classic Reprint) ~ Paperback ~ Henry Mountjoy

Excerpt from The Minister of Police Then, as now, this courtyard, vast, paved with cobblestones big as one's fist, looked on by rows and rows of windows; chill, almost repellent, gave one the impression of a back premises, without any de traction from that other impression of magnificence which the genius of Mansard mixed in the plans, the bricks and the very mortar of his work.
