French author extraordinaire Alexandre Dumas made his mark on European literature with his stories of dashing adventurers, most notably The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo. Starting out as a well-received playwright, Dumas found even greater success with his novels, which often featured fictional tales of real-life Gallic notables. Since his death in 1870, the works of Dumas have been adapted hundreds of times, particularly in countless cinematic incarnations.
