The Knight of Malta is a novel and was published in 1900 by Joseph Marie Eugene Sue. Eugene Sue was a French novelist. He was born in Paris, the son of a distinguished surgeon in Napoleon's army, and is said to have had the Empress Josephine for godmother. Sue himself acted as surgeon both in the Spanish campaign undertaken by France in 1823 and at the Battle of Navarino (1828). In 1829 his father's death put him in possession of a considerable fortune, and he settled in Paris. A street in Paris is named for Eugene Sue, in the 18th Arrondissement: Rue Eugene Sue is located near the Poissonniere Metro station, and is not far from Montmartre and the Basilica of the Sacre Coeur. A street in Mexico City, Calle Eugenio Sue, in the Polanco neighborhood, is also named for Sue.
