CountMonteCristo/True?

For some reason the jAva script is not working so I cannot post any responses to any posts on this page - however there was an "is this story true?" question -not sure wheather it referred 2 count of monte cristo or Man in Iron Mask however I DID find a very interesting link RE: Monte Cristo that has a short article on the true story monte cristo was based on. Blew me away since I'd assumed it 100% fiction. If anyone is interested here is the link http://www.mtholyoke.edu/courses/rschwart/hist255-s01/thenardier/renee/montecristo.htm
