This gossipy account of Louis XIV is a clear and fascinating
historical biography from Nancy Mitford. WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY
STELLA TILLYARD During his reign Louis XIV was the most powerful
king in Europe. He presided over a golden age of military and
artistic achievement in France, and deployed his charm and talents
for spin and intrigue to hold his court and country within his
absolute control. The Sun King's universe centred on Versailles, a
glittering palace from where Louis conducted his government and
complex love affairs. Nancy Mitford describes the daily life of
this splendid court in sumptuous detail, recreating the past in
vivid colour.
