Summary
Married for political reasons at the age of fourteen, Marie Antoinette was na$ve, impetuous, and ill equipped for the role in which history cast her. Through the chaos of an unhappy marriage and of the French Revolution that lead to her execution, her life was a tragedy of disastrous circumstances colliding. Evelyne Lever draws upon her diaries, letters, court records, and memoirs to paint a vivid portrait of Marie Antoinette, her inner circle, and the life of Versailles.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Married for political reasons at the age of fourteen, Marie Antoinette was naïve, impetuous, and ill equipped for the role in which history cast her. From her birth in Vienna in 1755 through her turbulent, unhappy marriage, the bloody turmoil of the French Revolution, her trial for high treason (during which she was accused of incest), and her final beheading, Marie Antoinetteâs life was the tragic tale of disastrous circumstances colliding.
Drawing upon her diaries, letters, court records, and memoirs, Evelyne Lever paints a vivid portrait of Marie Antoinette, her inner circle, and the lavish court life at Versailles. What emerges is a surprisingly average woman thrust into a position for which she was wholly unprepared, a combination that proved disastrous both for her and for France.
