The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas, published by Easton Press, is a lavish collector’s edition of the beloved 1844 historical adventure, renowned for its swashbuckling action, wit, and camaraderie. This premium volume embodies the spirit of Dumas’ classic tale—where young d’Artagnan joins forces with the legendary Athos, Porthos, and Aramis to thwart royal intrigues and duel their way through 17th-century France—with Easton Press’s signature craftsmanship.
Bound in full genuine leather with 22-karat gold accents, gilded page edges, and satin moiré endpapers, the book mirrors the novel’s opulent escapades. The archival-quality paper showcases the text’s vibrant energy, from the Musketeers’ famous motto (“All for one, one for all!”) to Cardinal Richelieu’s cunning schemes. Classic illustrations (often sourced from historic editions) bring to life the Gascon bravado, Milady de Winter’s treachery, and the clashing rapiers of perilous moonlit encounters.
Included are literary insights into Dumas’ collaborative writing process and the real historical figures behind the fiction, enhancing appreciation for this cornerstone of adventure literature.
Like D’Artagnan’s ambition, this edition is “magnificent in its insolence”—a fitting tribute to a novel that has inspired countless adaptations while remaining unrivaled in its charm.
