French Renaissance Monarchy : Francis I and Henry II (Semina,
By chris taylor (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: French Renaissance Monarchy: Francis I and Henry II (Seminar Studies in History) (Textbook Binding)
Extremely useful for students studying 'A' Level or a degree in history - much of what is said in this book is directly relevant to the course. Knecht is the accepted authority on Francis I and Renaissance France, and he writes in a lucid, easy to understand and sometimes even humourous style.

A satisfying, if brief analysis of 2 absolutist Kings,
By A Customer
This review is from: French Renaissance Monarchy: Francis I and Henry II (Seminar Studies in History) (Textbook Binding)
A good book to read if you are into the absolutist Kings of Medieval France. Not much new information, but does seem to do a good job of comparing the 2 kings to the rise of absolutism in France. It would be better if the author seperated the two kings into two different biographies.
