The Tutor and the Pupil (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 22 – Part 7)

On long days at sea, Dantès becomes to Jacopo what Faria had been to him — a teacher. In The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 22, he teaches his Corsican companion the language of the stars and the secrets of navigation, while quietly preparing for his own future. Passing Monte Cristo again and again without a chance to land, Edmond resolves that when his term aboard La Jeune Amélie ends, he will hire a vessel of his own and risk everything to claim the treasure.   ⸻   New to the journey?
