Excerpt from Episodes From Alexander Dumas' Les Trois Mousquetaires: Edited With Introduction, Notes, and Vocabulary
It is as the king of entertainers that Alexandre Dumas holds a unique place in the literature of the xixth century. A recent census in the French hospitals showed that no books are so frequently as his found under the pillow of the sick-bed. Nor are the most cultivated minds insensible to his fascination. Robert Louis Stevenson declares that Dumas approaches perhaps nearest of any modem to the Arabian authors in the purely material charm of some of his romances.
