Michel Zévaco (1860–1918) was a French journalist and novelist whose work belongs to the swashbuckling serial tradition. Born in Ajaccio on 1 February 1860, he died in Eaubonne on 8 August 1918. His historical adventures bring personal freedom into conflict with political ambition and the exercise of power.
