190111115D'ARTAGNAN THE KING MAKER Street & Smith 1901 first edition some light soiling but a bright vg copy in the publishers original color pictorial stamped cloth and quite uncommon. Illustrated by Charles Grunwald. "This sequel to THE THREE MUSKETEERS was actually written by Henry Llewellyn Williams who translated many works of Alexandre Dumas during the late 19th century including the sole published English translations of Comte de Moret. Around the end of the 19th century when Dumas developed an immense posthumous popularity he hit on the clever expedient of converting some of Dumas' successful plays into novels using Dumas' dialogue and converting the stage directions into exposition. Williams constructed at least three such novelizations before this one. About 1900 he wrote D'Artagnan the King-Maker advertised by the publisher as a novelization of a Dumas play a sequel to Les Trois Mousquetaires that never actually existed".Arthur D. Rypinski Street & Smith hardcover
