Content warning partial synopsis on Count of Monte Cristo & comment on author
Edmund was vengeance, an emperor, and “egotist”. He made an Italian bank, possibly raised a peasant to his own chief bandit and took care of the other bandits! He tricked a French banker into accepting his Italian bank's credit.... They abducted the banker! (after abducting his other rival’s son!)
Amazing story with many more details about his 2 French lives and life on the northern Mediterranean and “the Greeks”. He owned a “Nubian” slave, whom he saved from death. There's a fascinating book about the author’s father, who was in the Haitian revolution?

very complicated and expensive diet but easy to get the hang of. too much soapboxing from the author, possibly too much shouting, patronizing, or condensation. I didn't like all of her comments or repetitive word choices. The review on the back is by a left-wing TERF who has appeared with white nationalists and a racist homophobe, so as an ally, that association scares me. She also referenced Dr Mercola, who is a quack.
