About This Item
1668 King Louis IX France CRUSADES Joinville Cagne Knights RARE FOLIO 3in1
Louis IX of France was a 13th-century king, known for his 54-year reign of the French throne. His rule was highlighted by reforms made to the royal justice system, the annexation of Maine and Provence, and perhaps most notably his leadership in the 7th and 8th Crusades.
The majority of what we know of Louis IX's life comes from Jean de Joinville (the king's counselor) and his "Life of Saint Louis". Joinville offers details on the king's life and reign, but the majority of the book focuses on the Seventh Crusade and Louis's time spent in the Holy Land during the wars.
This 1668 edition of Joinville's "Louis IX" was collected and edited with notes by Charles Du Fresne Du Cange. A huge French folio!
