Charles Félix Henri Rabou (6 September 1803 – 1 February 1871) was a 19th-century French writer, novelist and journalist.
The son of a military sub-intendant, he studied at the collège Henri IV before attending law classes at the Faculty of Dijon.
Back in Paris with his degree in law, he turned away from the bar in favor of literature.
First a journalist for La Quotidienne, Le Messager des Chambres, Le Nouvelliste, le Journal de Paris, La Charte de 1830, he held political and literary chronicles, then in 1832 launched La Cour d'Assise, to be published until 1834.
Charles Rabou continued to produce great works of literature that deserve to be rediscovered.
