Title: Insightful look into the tragedy of a life...
Review: I have always been intriqued by the life of MA and have read many books over the years on her life and the French Revolution. Very facinating! I thought this book was a most insightful look into her world as first the Dauphine & then Queen, a girl & then woman and the property of the French Royalty whose 'sole purpose' was to produce a male heir...a Dauphin. The author helps one to understand the complexities of her priviledged cocoon in the beautiful palace of Versailles and the driving forces as she seems determined to undermine her whole world with many foolish & selfish choices. If you love history this book is well written & a comfortable read. One of my favorites on MA.
