"The Scarlet Pimpernel is a classic adventure novel, the storyline of which takes place in the early years of the French Revolution. It is also a precursor of spy novels, as the title character, the Scarlet Pimpernel, works undercover and in disguise to save French aristocrats from the guillotine." (http://www.goodreads.com/).I normally don't like spy books or masked heroes, but this book was awesome. Jesse and I saw the movie last Christmas. Needless to say, he hated it and I loved it. This is a classic novel.
