“All for one, one for all.” This offhand declaration was the oath asserted by the four musketeers, Porthos, Aramis, Athos, and d’Artagnan, when they committed their lives to gallantry at the expense of M. Bonacieux’s liberality.

The Three Musketeers & Alexandre Dumas Alexandre Dumas’s novels and in particular The Three Musketeers are so great for his ability to mix fact with fiction. As a historical novel, The Three Musketeers bases its story around some major characters and events of 17th century, French history.
