Louis XIV and his century: Roman. In 2 t. Dumas A.

The French king Louis XIV from the Bourbon dynasty ruled France 72 years old. These years are called the century of Louis, and the era of his reign - the time of the absolute monarchy. Nevertheless, there is not so much known about the person who created this age.

sometimes it may seem that Louis XIV glorified only the saying: “The state is me!” Alexander Dumas corrected this injustice, writing one of the most detailed and fascinating biographies “King - Sun” - “Louis XIV and its century”, which is published in this book.
