Alexandre Dumas: Three Musketeers (Modern Library Classics): 1

"Dumas' swashbuckling epic chronicles the adventures of d'Artagnan, a brash young man from the countryside who journeys to Paris in 1625 hoping to become a musketeer and guard to King Louis XIII. Before long, he finds treachery, court intrigue, and also three boon companions - the daring swordsmen Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. Together, the four strive to defend the honour of their queen against the powerful Cardinal Richelieu and the seductive spy Milady."--Youth Services Team, HPL.
