History of France

This is a great audiobook on How France Became The Pivotal Colony at The Hands of Rome. When I was in school, I had never been taught some history about France because it was not really important back in those years. I live in Canada, I am always curious to know a Brief History of France where Canada has two official languages which is English and French. The audiobook and the narrator are delightful with culture Religion & The Renaissance In Paris & Beyond. Great Book :)
