"Henry Bordeaux (25 January 1870 - 29 March 1963) was a French writer and lawyer. The writings of Bordeaux reflect the values of traditional provincial Catholic communities. One recurring theme is loyalty. Loyalty is pervasive, and it applies to family, country and God. This theme is particularly evidenced in the novels " La Peur de vivre " and "Les Roquevillard." Bordeaux was elected to the Académie française on 22 May 1919. This elite group of writers, popularly known as the "immortals," are responsible for establishing and maintaining the grammar, usage and acceptance of vocabulary into standard French. He was a contributor to Le Visage de l'Italie, a 1929 book about Italy prefaced by Benito Mussolini. Bordeaux died in Paris in 1963."
