Summary

"Scaramouche: A Romance of the French Revolution" by Rafael Sabatini is a historical adventure set in pre-revolution France that tells the story of Andre-Louis Moreau, a clever young man caught between social classes and conflicting loyalties as France moves toward revolution. Andre-Louis starts out reflecting on his life and education, and then his friend's pursuit of justice sets the stage for an internal battle of moral obligation, class conflict, and revolution. As Andre-Louis navigates his connections to a noble patron and the injustice around him, questions of justice and the price of standing up for what’s right drive the story forward.
