Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Monsieur De Barry Will: To Which Is Added the Woman With the Velvet Necklace In "Monsieur de Chauvelin´s Will" we are introduced to several of the historical characters who play parts of some prominence in the first of the so-called Marie-Antoinette Romances, the "Memoirs of a Physician," and to one - the Duc de Richelieu - who had been a leading figure at court and in society from the very beginning of the century, and whom the author has introduced, as a young man, in the "Regent´s Daughter," and, a few years later, in "Olympe de Clèves," lending a willing hand in the work of corrupting the young Louis XV., and launching him upon the path which he followed so consistently to the last ghastly hour of his deplorable life. The historical element is not more prominent in any of the author´s historical romances than in the one before us. As the characters, almost without exception, are historical personages, so it may be said that there is authority for almost every incident of the narrative.
