Marie Antoinette is best known as a bon vivant who loved fine foods, clothes, and fun. But is there more to the famous, spoiled queen who was only a teenager when she was torn from her home in Austria and married to the heir of the French throne? Through the approachable text, readers will discover that though the French queen had little interest in politics, she was a devoted mother who fought to protect her son after the royal family was arrested and charged with treason. With a collage-like layout chock-full of captioned photos and reproductions, this biography will hold special appeal for browsers.
