Oh, very much agreed. But that's the nice thing about research- you don't have to use it, 'cause sometimes it's better to let historical fiction be, well, fictional. After all, sometimes, fleas and lice and rotten teeth just get in the way of the fun. And anyway, it;s not like Dumas spent much time on those details himself.
