Annotation

Gatien de Courtilz de Sandras (1644—1712) was a French novelist, journalist, pamphleteer and memorialist. Courtilz de Sandras is best known today for his semi-fictionalized memoirs of the famous musketeer d’Artagnan which were published in 1700 and which served as the model for Alexandre Dumas, père's portrayal of d'Artagnan in “The three musketeers”, “20 years after” and “The vicomte de Bragelonne”.
