William Stearns Davis, professor of history at the University of Minnesota, recounts the most important events in France's two-thousand-year history, beginning with the ancient Gauls and ending with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. Its conciseness and richness of information make this overview of many centuries of the country's life a fascinating excursion into ancient and medieval times, the reigns of Henry IV and Louis XIII, the reigns of Cardinal Richelieu and Louis XIV, the ideas of the Enlightenment, and the greatest writers and scholars of France at the time. The Revolution of the late 18th century, the proclamation of the Republic, Napoleon's Empire, the Bourbon Restoration, the monarchy of Louis Philippe, the Second Empire of Napoleon III, the Republic again, and World War I… The author doesn't always manage to maintain the impartiality typically expected of a historian, but this only adds to the book's interest, attracting readers who study or are interested in the history of France and Western Europe in general.
