The precursor to a film of the same name, The Princess Bride is a story
about a story - a fairy tale told to a young boy by his father. Of course,
not without lots of editing to ensure that only the good parts are left
in. The reader is left with a tale of swordplay, true love, evil men,
escape from death, and plenty of humor. The story starts with a young
bride whisked away by assassins that plan to kill her and pin her death on

events throughout the war; however, the individuality, emotions, and existence of soldiers
themselves are often looked upon. Ironically, they are the ones who go through the most trauma,
