Jackson blends courtroom drama, political intrigue, and brilliant narrative history to highlight the hard choices and moral compromises leaders make in times of war.

One could confidently say such a thing because of the long history of French polities taking charge in world history.

For example, as the Roman Empire was falling apart, the Franks were increasingly relied upon for the security of the ailing Roman state.

It could be argued that the French Revolution is the perfect example of a social movement that began with the best of intentions yet somehow went wrong.
