The Man with the Iron Mask

The Man with the Iron Mask: in Four Epochs "Each Epoch containing a distinct and thrilling phase in this most extraordinary man's life, until his murder in the Bastile, sternly corroborated by facts and documents seized during its demolition by the infuriated people."

Adapted from the French by W.J. Lucas, William James Lucas, first performed at the Royal Pavilion Theatre, London, and published by T.H. Lacy in 1850 and Samuel French, 1864. However, there is little indication what the French source for his adaptation was.
