Description

Explore the era of the Sun-king with this detailed historical study from Routledge. For forty years starting in 1672, France remained in a state of continuous warfare, maintaining one of the largest armies in the West since the fall of imperial Rome. This book provides a deep look into how these extensive campaigns shaped the future of the French monarchy. Author John Lynn examines the strategic policies driving these conflicts and investigates the operational logistics behind the military campaigns. You will learn how these wars, while securing little new territory, nearly bankrupted the nation and created consequences that contributed to the eventual downfall of the French monarchy. This work is an essential resource for readers interested in European history, military strategy, and the political evolution of France.
