First published in 1921, "Scaramouche" was Rafael Sabatini's fourteenth novel and a runaway best-seller.

Sabatini gives readers what they want: strong storylines, vivid characters and exotic settings. The plot is terrific and the pace fast and furious. Furthermore, Sabatini has done his research: the described adventures follow the course of the French Revolution as it moves ever closer to the Reign of Terror.

"Scaramouche" tells the story of a hero who once was André-Louis Moreau, a lawyer raised by nobility, unconcerned with the growing discontent among France's lower class -- until his friend was mercilessly struck down by a member of the aristocracy.

Now he is Scaramouche. Speaking out against the unjust French government, he takes refuge with a nomadic band of actors and assumes the role of the clown Scaramouche -- a comic figure with a very serious message...

Set during the French Revolution, this novel of swashbuckling romance is also a thought-provoking commentary on class, inequality, and the individual's role in society -- a story that has become Rafael Sabatini's enduring legacy.
