Captain Pamphile or The Adventures of Captain Pamphile (French: Le Capitaine Pamphile) is an 1839 French adventure novel by Alexandre Dumas. It was aimed at children and had a strong anti-slavery message.
Musing on how a monkey, a bear, and a turtle came to inhabit the same Parisian drawing room, Dumas introduces Captain Pamphile, a decidedly unorthodox Provençal sea caption with a flair for “liberating” unusual species from their native shores.

Capitaine Pamphile is an awkwardly assembled comic novel, which began as a pair of short stories (James I and James II) and was subsequently expanded by Dumas into a cross between a travel adventure (à la Madame Giovanni or Gil Blas) and perhaps fanciful animal memoir (like Histoires de mes bêtes).
