A Heroic Comedy from the French of Edward Rosstand, as accepted and played by Richard Mansfield. Translated by Howard Thayer Kingsbury.

The immediate and prolonged success of "Cyrano de Bergerac," in Paris, has been paralleled by Mr. Mansfield's success with an English version, dating from its first night at the Garden Theatre, New York, October 3, 1898.
As a literary work, the original form of Rostand took high rank and the preference of Mr. Mansfield for Mr. Kingsbury's new translation implies its superior merit.
