Without being absolutely handsome ... was of a very prepossessing appearance. He was tall and robust, well made, and active.... his eyes were bright, and of a clear blue colour; his hair was light, and his upper lip could already boast that ornament which the then age, and his own position made allowable" (1:1:8-9).One of the principal characters in La Vendee.
