The arrest of Mr. Deblieux was ordered, and the guillotine stood waiting! As a small group of revolutionary men headed towards his castle, Alexandre Deblieux began formulating his plan of escape. He fired a shot above their heads and seized the diversion to make his escape. When the thick oak doors finally gave way, the insurgents found only the faces of the paintings on the walls staring back at them.
The book, "Alexandre Deblieux-We Are His Legacy," is an in-depth story of Alexandre's life, a colorful life ripe with mysteries which continue to follow him in death. He was a Frenchman by birth-an American by choice. It is a story of his two thousand descendants whose history and future merge within the stories of these pages.
All of the collected data is a story to tell. It lies beyond the family tree that hung on the dining room wall in Lynda's childhood home. Captured in Alexandre Deblieux-We Are His Legacy is a family's past, its now, and its future.
