Amen! Though there are some things about research that make my teeth hurt. For example, just as Dumas preferred to ignore all the blood-and-gorey aspects of period warfare and focus on the gloriousness of it all! so do I prefer to ignore the fact that most probably, the real people behind the characters all had lice and bad teeth and smelled like week-dead goats. My Musketeers bathe, thank you very much!
