Alexandre Dumas père, author of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, fought his first duel on this day in 1825. Dumas, who would later write of incredible battles and sword duels in his novels, escaped from the fight uninjured. Both of his most famous books have captivated audiences for generations and made their way onto film screens thanks to the action and daring displayed by Dumas' characters.
