François “Pierre” Picaud (French: [piko]) was a 19th-century shoemaker in Nîmes, France who may have been the basis for the character of Edmond Dantès in Alexandre Dumas, père’s 1844 novel The Count of Monte Cristo.

Fantastic book. Might not be for everyone, as it was written long ago, so language and style might be an issue for some.
It’s one of my favorite stories. Probably the only “classic” story that I really enjoyed reading.
