This comprehensive history traces the Bourbons from their medieval origins to the twenty-first century, weaving together the lives of famous figures such as Louis XIV and Marie Antoinette with lesser-known princes, princesses, and even illegitimate offspring. Stretching across France, Spain, and Italy, the narrative highlights how Louis IX forged a dynastic identity that would shape European politics for centuries. Beyond individual biographies, Jonathan Spangler situates the dynasty within the broader political culture of early modern and modern Europe--from the War of the Spanish Succession to the French Revolution and the Italian Risorgimento--offering a richly textured account of power, family, and legacy across generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Spangler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1836392877\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781836392873\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/18\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs","brand":"Jonathan Spangler","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49001710682367,"sku":"9781836392873","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-bourbons-jonathan-spangler-9781836392873","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
