Five Real People From The Three Musketeers (with a Bonus person)

musketeers_01The Three Musketeers is a story written about by Alexandre Dumas (1844) about the exploits of a young Gascon and how he meets a group of French soldiers noted for their muskets and fierce swordplay and swashbuckling exploits. Dumas was famous for taking historical facts and weaving them into a story worth repeating over and over. While the specific events of the book are left to Dumas’ imagination, the people were loosely based upon historical fact. The Three Musketeers has been translated into hundreds of languages and has been turned into numerous movies, television shows, and cartoons. There is even a candy bar named after the famous trio.
