THREE MUSKETEERS BY ALEXANDRE DUMAS, THE

Perhaps the greatest 'cloak and sword' story ever written, 'The Three Musketeers', first published ion 1844, is a tale for all time. Pitting the heroic young d’Artagnan and his noble compatriots, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis against the master of intrigue, Cardinal Richelieu, and the quintessential wicked woman, Lady de Winter, Alexandre Dumas has created an enchanted France of swordplay, schemes and assignations.
