He was the founder of a dynasty that lasted until 1328. Although for much of this time, the French kings were weak, and the kingdom of France was much smaller than it later became, the Capetians nevertheless had considerable achievements and also produced outstanding rulers, including Philip Augustus and St Louis. This wide-ranging book throws fascinating light on the history of Medieval France and the development of European monarchy.Dynasties.FranceHistoryCapetians, 987-1328FranceKings and rulersBiography944.021Bradbury Jim254450MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777801903321The Capetians3755697UNINA
