Ernest Alfred Vizetelly

Life

He was a son of the English publisher Henry Vizetelly, by his first marriage to Ellen Elizabeth Pollard. He was known as a war correspondent.[1]

Ernest republished some of his father's works by Émile Zola but modified them. Ernest was present with his father at the Siege of Paris during the Franco-Prussian War and wrote a memoir of his experiences My Days of Adventure; the Fall of France, 1870-71 which also contains an autobiographical introduction.

When Zola fled France for England during the Dreyfus Affair in 1898 Vizetelly supported and advised Zola.[2]
