His best friend, an activist, has been murdered by a nobleman, and AndreÌ-Louis vows to take up his friend's cause and avenge his death. Hiding out as an actor in a traveling troupe, AndreÌ-Louis spots the nobleman in the audience. Evoking pandemonium, he confronts the aristocrat from the stage. Animosity intensifies after the man corrupts AndreÌ-Louis' would-be wife. Later, as a fencing master, AndreÌ-Louis meets the noble in a deadly duel. The romantic adventures of Rafael Sabatini, born in Italy to an English mother, have been likened to those of Dumas. Published in 1921, Scaramouche became a best-seller in the U.S., where the public was fed up with modern warfare and eager to read about a daring hero of 18th century France. 650 $a Adventure fiction. 650 $a Audiobooks. 650 $a France $x Fiction. $x Revolution, 1789-1799 $x Fiction. 650 $a Historical fiction. 650 $a Love stories. 650 $a War stories. 700 $a Whitfield, Robert. 856 $u http://wilbor.lib.overdrive.com/ContentDetails.htm?ID=4881A8DD-CA3E-4F0A-8330-B615BE8919D8 $3 URL 941 $a 2 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20111119011044.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20101023011152.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1101B864DE6B11DF9C83A1F56AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
