Sinopsis

&ldquo,The name of Alexandre Dumas is more than French, it is European, it is more than European, it is universal.&rdquo,á&ndash, Victor Hugo [Dumas was] the most generous, large-hearted being in the world. He also was the most delightfully amusing and egotistical creature on the face of the earth. His tongue was like a windmill &ndash, once set in motion, you never knew when he would stop, especially if the theme was himself. &ndash,áWatts Phillips, playwright and artist.&ldquo,Words never failed Alexandre Dumas. In his maniacally productive writing career, he pumped out millions and millions of them: some good, some bad and all indifferent to any value other than propelling a story forward at the giddiest possible pace, if not, perhaps, with optimum fuel efficiency. Dumas&rsquo,s novels are shameless word-guzzlers, big and plush and almost sinfully comfortable: ideal vehicles for the long, scenic excursions into French history he regularly conducted for the newspaper readers of mid-19th-century Paris.&rdquo, --áTerrence Rafferty, New York Times.The Three Musketeersáhas it all.

The phrases &ldquo,The Three Musketeers&rdquo, and &ldquo,All for one and one for all&rdquo, have entered common usage.The Three Musketeersárecounts the adventures of d',Artagnan, a poor young nobleman, who leaves home and travels to Paris to enter the elite Musketeers of the Guard. He joins the three most formidable musketeers of the age&mdash,Athos, Porthos and Aramis&mdash,and, together, they get involved in affairs of the state and court. They need to employ all their valour and swordsmanship to triumph over the machiavellian Cardinal Richelieu and the unscrupulous seductress Countess de Winter. This swashbuckling classic is a riveting easy read and one of the most famous historical novels ever written.áThis edition is complete and unabridged.áAlexandre Dumasáwas a larger-than-life character. His published works include novels, plays and non-fiction and occupy 100,000 pages of text. His unpublished works continue to be discovered even into the twenty-first century. Dumas&rsquo, gifts extended beyond writing. Over the years he employed over seventy skilled assistants to help him complete his many projects, but the storytelling and character development always carry his stamp.
