308pp. In laminated card covers (very slightly worn at edges). Internally there's a hint of page tanning else neat, clean and tight. Louis VI, known as the Fat (1081-1137), was 27 when he came to power. Advised by Suger, he must fight against Henry I of England, heir to William the Conqueror, and repel the Germanic Emperor Henry V. He restores order in the royal domain; the first communes are freed. Through the biography of an unknown Capetian, Jacques Delperri� de Bayac analyses the first clues to the birth of the French nation. Text in French.
