'A captivating biography ... This rollicking story is packed with
anecdotes' The Times 'I can't suppose that there has been a better
English biography of Francis, or indeed is likely to be one'
Catholic Herald Francis I was inconstant, amorous, hot-headed and
flawed. Arguably he was also the most significant king that France
ever had. A contemporary of Henry VIII of England, Francis saw
himself as the first Renaissance king. A courageous and heroic
warrior, he was also a keen aesthete, an accomplished diplomat and
an energetic ruler who turned his country into a force to be
reckoned with. Bestselling historian Leonie Frieda's comprehensive
and sympathetic account explores the life of the most human of all
Renaissance monarchs - and the most enigmatic.
