    This novel by Dumas explores the larger than life exploits of the musketeers who risked life and limb to fight for what is good and right. Set in the time of Louis XIII, the author brings the heroics and characters of the men alive. The musketeers take risks average men would never dare and always end as the heroes despite their flaws.

    This novel originally published in 1844-1845 is still a cornerstone for modern day motion pictures!
