Información sobre este eBook
The Reunion of the Musketeers: In this sequel to "The Three Musketeers," d'Artagnan has completely lost touch with his friends. The group has been broken up. The two noblemen, Arthos and Porthos, have left the service and are living on their estates, Aramis has gone into the Church, and d'Artagnan alone is still in the King's guard. When Queen Anne needs again the group's service, Cardinal Mazarin commissions d'Artagnan to go in search of his friends. "Twenty Years After" follows events in France during a civil war (the "Fronde," 1648-1653), and in England at the time of Oliver Cromwell until the execution of King Charles I.

Acerca del autor
After an idle youth, Alexandre Dumas went to Paris and spent some years writing. A volume of short stories and some farces were his only productions until 1927, when his play Henri III (1829) became a success and made him famous. It was as a storyteller rather than a playwright, however, that Dumas gained enduring success. Perhaps the most broadly popular of French romantic novelists, Dumas published some 1,200 volumes during his lifetime. These were not all written by him, however, but were the works of a body of collaborators known as "Dumas & Co." Some of his best works were plagiarized. For example, The Three Musketeers (1844) was taken from the Memoirs of Artagnan by an eighteenth-century writer, and The Count of Monte Cristo (1845) from Penchet's A Diamond and a Vengeance. At the end of his life, drained of money and sapped by his work, Dumas left Paris and went to live at his son's villa, where he remained until his death.
Andrew Moore assisted James McNair on the last 10 of his cookbooks, including recipe development and editing. James and Andrew divide their time between a home in Northern California and their lodge on the north shore of Lake Tahoe.
