Mittié, Jean-Corisandre
Entry updated 25 July 2022. Tagged: Author.
(? -? ) French author of Descente en Angleterre ["The Raid on England"] (1798), a very early example of the Future-War Invasion tale, here conceived in dramatic form, apparently farcical; any close resemblance to the much later Battle of Dorking mode is unestablished. [JC]
