Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of royal finances during the French Revolution, particularly concerning pensions granted by King Louis XVI. It offers a historical examination of how these pensions became a target of public scrutiny and outrage. The author meticulously analyzes a secret accounting ledger, the 'Red Book,' which detailed substantial sums allocated to courtiers, ministers, and other figures. The revelations from this ledger sparked widespread indignation and fueled the growing discontent with the monarchy. The book explores the political and social implications of these financial revelations, shedding light on the economic and ideological factors that contributed to the downfall of the French monarchy and aristocracy. Through rigorous research and analysis, the author provides valuable insights into the financial practices and power dynamics of the ancien rà gime.
