This is an EPUB edition of the anonymous public domain translation of
The Three Musketeers, the first of Dumas's D'Artagnan romances. I've produced this version in the face of existing editions for two reasons:
- I've significantly cleaned up the source Project Gutenberg text, using various editions of the translation available through Google Book Search and the Project Gutenberg French edition as references. I've corrected a number of typos, added a few passages which appear to have been accidentally dropped, restored all italics (with proper capitalization), and correctly restored all accented letters (I hope).
- I wanted to showcase what it is possible to do with EPUB formatting-wise, and I'd already started this book's production as some point in the past. My intent is for this to be the most beautiful version of this text available in a reflowable e-book format. To that end, I'd appreciate any feedback on areas where you feel I have not achieved this goal.
Because of the significant work I have put into this edition, instead of simply counting it as instance of the public domain text, I am releasing it under the Creative Commons BY-SA license.
Thanks, and I hope you enjoy it!
