Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) was one of France's best-known and most-prolific writers. He excelled at many genres, but is most likely best known for his reports of high excursion and dashing derring do. In Zodomirsky's Duel, he instructs the tale of an unusual duel between officers in a regiment stationed on the Austrian border. A new official has arrived, Lieutenant Zodomirsky, who's betrothed to the stunning Mademoiselle Ravensky. The dour Sub-Lieutenant Stamm is definately not impressed by the good-looking, popular, and prosperous newcomer, who also offers a reputation to be extremely hot-headed. Stamm himself had secret expectations where Mademoiselle Ravensky was concerned. Stamm is out of his way to insult Zodomirsky, which undoubtedly leads to an issue to a duel. But Stamm models some very strange stipulations as to the method of the contest... which means that Zodomirsky's natural edge in any equipped battle is quickly reversed. The results of the duel is completely unexpected and even more horrible for both celebrations than anything either of these might have conceived.
