The play is set in the French Alps and revolves around a group of tourists who have come to climb Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in Europe.

The tourists are all caricatures of their respective nationalities, with the Americans portrayed as brash and loud, the English as reserved and proper, the French as romantic and passionate, and the Germans as efficient and organized.The plot revolves around the various mishaps and misunderstandings that occur as the tourists attempt to climb the mountain. There are romantic entanglements, mistaken identities, and comedic miscommunications. Ultimately, the play is a lighthearted satire of the tourist experience and the cultural differences that make travel both exciting and challenging.Overall, Mont Blanc: A Comedy, In Three Acts is a witty and entertaining play that offers a humorous glimpse into the world of travel and adventure in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
