À propos de cet audio

 In the gripping second volume of this unique historical account, we delve into the tumultuous events from October 1789, when Louis XVI was compelled to leave Versailles for Paris, to August 1792. This period marks a dramatic turning point as Louis and his family make a desperate attempt to escape the country amidst foreign invasions and escalating internal strife. The narrative reaches a chilling climax with the brutal massacre of Swiss Guards defending the royal family. As Louis finds himself imprisoned, it becomes painfully clear that the ambitious three-year effort to institute a constitutional monarchy has crumbled. Join Peter Dann as he recounts this pivotal chapter in Frances history, filled with intrigue, conflict, and the relentless pursuit of liberty.Copyright Early Modern Monde Politique Sciences politiques
