Twenty Years After

By ALEXANDRE DUMAS Condensation by REV. R. PERRY BUSH, D.D.

FEW of us with red blood in our veins ever lose our interest in deeds of chivalric valor and adventure, and Dumas is a master in his delineation of soldiers of fortune--their fatal marksmanship, their matchless wielding of sword and rapier, and their hair-breadth escapes.

In Twenty Years After he presents his "three musketeers" somewhat more matured and not as rollicking as when we met them in their early manhood, but just as ready to champion the needy and unfortunate.
