While Florin and Guilder are on the verge of war, Buttercup, a poor farm girl, loses her one true love, is kidnapped by Vizzini and his crew, rescued by a pirate, forced to marry Prince Humperdinck, and rescued again by the very crew that kidnapped her in the first place. In this amazing tale, abridged by William Goldman for teens, we watch as Westley, her one love, foils all their plots and climbs mountains, goes through murderous swamps, and fights giants for Buttercup.
