Marie-Antoinette, the last queen of France, fascinated her
contemporaries with her temperament and independent spirit, her
escapades and her frivolity. Born in Austria, she married the
future Lois XVI at age 15, and then charmed her entire court with
her small blonde build and grace. Crowned queen in 1774, she
quickly stepped forward and upstaged her king. A great lover and
rebel, she lost herself in gambling and social activity, angering
her subjects who would never forgive her excessive expenses. From
her powder pink boudoirs, to her apartments filled with lacquer
furniture, from the Trianon, where she brought her lovers, to her
milk house, where she played farmer's wife, this book traces the
journey of the woman who left her mark on her time with a feminism
that was both flirtatious and glamorous.
