The book of Peter Cherkasov is dedicated to the brilliant period in the history of France, when it occupied the exclusive position of the “arbiter of Europe”, and Paris was rightfully considered the “capital of the world”. However, this period ended with the collapse of the royal power, which was followed by the revolutionary decade and the Bonapartist coup of 1799. How did the Bourbons dynasty have established himself on the throne and why did it lose power? Who ruled France for two centuries? Why did the constitutional monarchy not take place in 1789-1792? What were the first steps of the French Republic? The author gives answers to these questions, considering the history of France through the fate of its rulers - from King Henry IV to the head of government of the First French Republic of Field Barras. The book presents nine portraits - as always with Peter Cherkasov, capacious, accurate, detailed.
