Versailles by Christopher Hibbert
VERSAILES is the most widely praised, and in some ways the most accessible, of Kathryn Davis's dazzling novels. As a tale of women, marriage, and power, the novel is sure to spark lively discussion in reading groups.
Wittily entertaining and astonishingly wise, this novel of the life of Marie Antoinette finds the characters struggling to mind their step in the great ballroom of the world.
Christopher Hibbert was born in 1924 and attended Radley College and Oxford University. The Rise and Fall of the House of Medici, The English: A Social History, and Cavaliers and Roundheads are among his many recognized works. In addition, he has authored 'biographies' of London, Rome, and Venice, as well as biographies of Samuel Johnson, Elizabeth I, and Napoleon and his women.
