!!''Dumas'' provides examples of:
* ArtisticLicenseHistory: Charlotte Desrives is a completely fictional creation, so the conflict Dumas and Maquet had over the latter using the former's name to seduce her didn't occur in real life. In reality, the two fall apart in 1851 from another due to Maquet suing Dumas eariler as he demanded co-authorship and royalities but the court ruled in favor of Dumas.
* {{Ghostwriter}}: Maquet serves as a co-writer for Dumas, helping him with the plot and outlines for his novels. However, Maquet's name doesn't appear on the covers of their work, so Dumas gets all of the credit while Maquet stays in his shadow. For 10 years, Maquet wasn't bothered by it until he ended up using Dumas' name to seduce Charlotte, leading to a quarrel between him and Dumas. This leads to an important question about who's the father of Dumas' [[Literature/TheThreeMusketeers iconic]] [[Literature/TheCountOfMonteCristo works]].
