Alexandre Dumas’s most famous tale – and possibly the most famous historical novel of all time – in a handsome hardcover volume.
This swashbuckling epic of chivalry, honor, and derring-do, set in France during the 1620s, is richly populated with romantic heroes, unattainable heroines, kings, queens, cavaliers, and criminals in a whirl of adventure, espionage, conspiracy, murder, vengeance, love, scandal, and suspense. Dumas transforms minor historical figures into larger- than-life characters: the Comte d’Artagnan, an impetuous young man in pursuit of glory; the beguilingly evil seductress ‘Milady’; the powerful and devious Cardinal Richelieu; the weak King Louis XIII and his unhappy queen – and, of course, the three musketeers themselves, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, whose motto ‘all for one, one for all’ has come to epitomize devoted friendship. With a plot that delivers stolen diamonds, masked balls, purloined letters, and, of course, great bouts of swordplay, The Three Musketeers is eternally entertaining.
