This important and long-awaited study is the first full-scale
biography of Charlemagne's grandson, King of the West Franks from
843 to 877, and Emperor from 875. Posterity has not been kind to
Charles or his age, seeing him as a fatally weak ruler in decadent
times, threatened by Viking invaders and overmighty subjects. Janet
Nelson, however, reveals an able and resourceful ruler who, under
challenging conditions, maintained and enhanced royal authority,
and held together the kingdom that, outlasting the Carolingians
themselves, in due course became France.
