by Alexandre Dumas
OUTDATE: Please read new version of the book HERE
The Vicomte of Bragelonne (year 1660) is a novel by Alexandre Dumas. It is the third of The d'Artagnan Romances, following The Three Musketeers (year 1625-1628) and Twenty Years After (year 1648-1649).
In the English translations, the 268 chapters of this large volume are usually subdivided into three, but sometimes four or even six individual books. Set in the 1660s and concerned with the early reign of Louis XIV, the novel has been called an "origins" story of the King, "a tale about the education of a young man who went on to rule for over 70 years and become one of France's most beloved monarchs." Naturally, in a novel about Dumas' musketeers, the characters play an important role in Louis' education.
