About the author
Born in Saint-Rémy, Calvados, on December 7, 1811, Isidore Mullois was a French Catholic priest and author who died in Paris on January 5, 1870. Library records identify him as an author of several religious and social works, and English-language editions helped some of his writing reach readers outside France.
He is especially associated with The Clergy and the Pulpit in Their Relations to the People, a work presented in translation as a lively and thoughtful book about preaching and the bond between clergy and ordinary listeners. Catalog records also connect him with books aimed at working and suffering people, suggesting a strong interest in everyday moral and social concerns.
Mullois is also remembered for writing on birds, which has given him a small place in the history of popular nature writing as well as devotional literature. A confirmed portrait image was not available from the sources I could verify, so no profile image is included here.
