This readable and thoroughly documented volume relates the fascinating story of the French Legation in Austin. The oldest house in the city, it was built in 1840-1841 as the residence of the French charge d'affaires to the fledgling Republic of Texas. Alphonse Dubois, the self-styled Count de Saligny, dazzled frontier Texans with elegant parties until he was recalled after less than a year in Austin.
