"Aventures merveilleuses mais authentiques du capitaine Corcoran, Première…" by Alfred Assolant is a novel published in 1867. This philosophical adventure tale follows Captain Corcoran, a sailor from Saint-Malo sent to India to recover an ancient manuscript. Caught in the 1857 uprising, he fights alongside a maharaja against the British, marries the maharaja's daughter, and reluctantly inherits a kingdom. Accompanied by his tiger Louison and revered as a reincarnation of Vishnu, Corcoran pursues ideals of equality and social justice in unexpected ways. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
