Kittys Reader Notes

"This famous story of D'Artagnan and the three musketeers, Porthos, Athos and Aramis, is one of the world's best loved classics. It is woven against a backcloth of intrigue, romance and mystery in the colourful reign of King Louis XIII of France.

It sparkles with swashbuckling gaiety and gallantry, it glints with the steel of flashing sword-blades, and it echoes to the hoof-beats of horses galloping through the cobbled streets of royal France. Its plot involves the protagonists in duels, kidnappings and secret missions, and it has been read with gusto for over a hundred years."

With its delightful blend of action, romance, and wit, "The Three Musketeers" has captivated readers for generations. This vintage edition preserves the charm and elegance of a bygone era, inviting readers to relish the allure of a timeless classic. Immerse yourself in a world where chivalry and adventure reign supreme, and embark on a journey that will leave you breathless.

This old favourite book Alexandre Dumas' is quite simply - still a classic.
