The Three Musketeers at The Temple - Wanstead Park

All for One - and One for All! Alexandre Dumas wrote five Musketeers novels, the first appearing in 1844. They have enjoyed enormous popularity worldwide and are not just textbook examples of the Historical Romance but also hilarious pastiches of that genre. This one, the first, remains the greatest. Young DArtagnan is desperate to join Athos, Porthos and Aramis as an elite Musketeer of the Kings Guard. To prove himself he plunges headlong into a thrilling adventure to retrieve the Queens jewels, race the clock to restore Her Majestys honour, survive the machinations of scheming Cardinal Richelieu, and cross swords with the deadly Milady de Winter. Set against a sweeping panorama of 17th century France at war, its a whirlwind of excitement, comedy and ingenious storytelling. Romance! Intrigue! Murder! Betrayal! Revenge...!
