by A. (Albert) Levé
Albert Levé (1843–1921) was a French author whose works show a strong interest in history, law, and careful documentation. Library and ebook records connect him with books including La tapisserie de la reine Mathilde dite la tapisserie de Bayeux (1919), a study of the Bayeux Tapestry, and a French edition of the Spanish Civil Code prepared with translation and commentary.
Although biographical details about his life are not easy to confirm from readily available modern sources, the record of his publications makes him look like a serious, research-minded writer rather than a novelist or popular entertainer. His work appears to have been aimed at readers who wanted clear guidance on historical subjects and legal texts.
Today, Levé is most accessible through digital libraries such as Project Gutenberg, Open Library, and the Internet Archive, where his books continue to circulate for new readers interested in early twentieth-century French scholarship.
