I don't like its arrangement. There are 93 chapters, each on its own topic, and it spends a lot of time telling what Mirabeau was doing during those years and that really isn't too interesting, and ditto Beaumarchais. It also tells a lot about Lafayette and that is told from a different perspective. Basically the account is biographical and anecdotal and that is not the kind of history I am used to. Manceron insists Louis XVI had no operation--that Joseph II just gave them (Louis and Marie Antoinette) psychological advice. I do not like Manceron, since he is clearly anti-Catholic and so I doubt I will read the further volumes by him . ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
