The Road from Versailles: Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, and the Fall of the French Monarchy Book

To revolutionary France and the rest of the world, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette presented a face of accommodation with the revolution. They had to; they knew their lives de-pended upon it. Yet, they also realized that they were living on borrowed time, so they decided to act. Using their myster-ious and controversial ambassador, Baron de Breteuil, as go- between, they secretly tried to arrange an invasion of France by the Allied Powers. Never before has this double game been so convincingly proven and dramatized. Through the lens of Baron de Breteuil and his previously undiscovered letters and diaries, historian Munro Price sheds new light on the true motives of the royal family and provides answers to questions that have beguiled historians for centuries.Read More
