[Linux-disciples] Rsync Question

I have been using rsync to copy directories to and from a remote 
server. Am having one problem and perhaps I am not seeing the answer 
that should be right in front of me. If the directory at the source has 
a space in the name, rysnc is returning an error. For example,

rsync -vrP smith at domain.net:/directory1/Multiple\ Word\ Directory ~/

fails as it looks for a directory named "multiple" one named "word" and 
one named "directory"...

Am i just gunking up the syntax?

Thanks.
