Beschreibung

Twenty Years After: 
• With a picture of Alexandre Dumas
, a detailed biography of him is added.
• All content is redone in a new style, with the author's name and the title of the novel at the top.
• For a better glance, a small graphic is added at the beginning of each chapter.

Twenty Years After begins in 1648, with the Red Sphinx, Cardinal Richelieu, dead, France ruled by a regency in the midst of civil war, and King Charles I's monarchy hanging by a thread across the English Channel. These are difficulties that a sword thrust will not address, as d'Artagnan will discover. The musketeers confront maturity and its greatest difficulty in Twenty Years After: you fail sometimes. We begin to glimpse the actual qualities of Dumas's great heroes in how the four companions respond to failure and rise above it.

    "The Marquis and Marquise de Castillon together with their young son, Jean Pierre, were forced to flee France for England when the French Revolution broke out in 1789.
    Jean Pierre was educated at Eton and only returned to Paris when Napoleon came to power. It was not long before he joined Napoleons Army, survived the Retreat from Moscow and was badly wounded at the Battle of Waterloo.
    Whilst in hospital he became friends with Colonel Hubert Dawlish who was in the next bed. Before they both underwent life threatening operations, they made joint wills leaving everything to the other.
    Jean Pierre, now the Marquis, survived the operation and returned to his ancestral Chateau to find it looted and in a terrible state of repair. Another blow awaited him when the late Colonel Dawlishs three children arrived as he was now their Guardian. He felt too ill and depressed even to want to see them.
    The eldest, the beautiful Marietta, was gifted with the powers of healing and herbs and she enthusiastically set about not only bringing the Marquis back to health, but to restoring the Chateau to its former glory.
    She persuaded some soldiers to help her with the Chateau and through her prayers made a stunning discovery that changed the Marquiss fortunes.
    How she found love where she least expected it and showed the Marquis that love and prayer can heal any wounds and overcome all obstacles is told in this exciting and unusual book by BARBARA CARTLAND."
