With swordfights and romance, adventure and treachery set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, this is the book that made Rafael Sabatini famous.

Andr®-Louis Moreau has good prospects as a young lawyer, but an unfair duel with the ruthlessly cruel Count de La Tour d''Azyr leaves Andr®-Louis'' best friend dead and Andr®-Louis himself a fugitive from the king''s justice. While incognito, disguised as "Scaramouche,"he becomes both a wildly popular actor and a firebrand of the Revolution. His vow to avenge his friend''s murder leads him deeper into the political intrigues that surround the Revolution and to a position of power. But there are secrets to be revealed that will stun all of Paris.

One of the best historical romances of all time, Scaramouche was a bestseller upon its original publication in the United States in 1921. Today it remains a classic of swashbuckling adventure.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Rafael Sabatini

Rafael Sabatini (1875-1950), filho de mãe inglesa e pai italiano, ambos cantores de ópera, teve uma infância itinerante que o fez estudar, durante um ano, em Portugal. A sua obra inclui, a par de Scaramouche, alguns dos mais famosos romances históricos de aventuras de sempre, entre eles Sea Hawk (1915) e Captain Blood (1922). Sobre a sua tumba estão as palavras de abertura deste romance: «Ele nasceu com o dom do riso e com a consciência de que o mundo era louco.»
