Little Duchess, Anne of Brittany is a historical biography written by Emma L. Brock. The book tells the story of Anne of Brittany, who was born in 1477 and became the Duchess of Brittany at the age of 11. Anne was a powerful figure in the French court, and her marriages to two successive kings of France, Charles VIII and Louis XII, cemented her position as one of the most influential women of her time. The book describes Anne's life in detail, from her childhood in Brittany to her marriages and her eventual death in 1514. It explores her relationships with her husbands, her role as a patron of the arts and sciences, and her political influence. The book also delves into the complex political landscape of 15th and 16th century Europe, with its shifting alliances and power struggles.Brock's writing is engaging and accessible, making this book suitable for both casual readers and those with a more academic interest in history. The book is well-researched and includes a wealth of primary source material, including letters and documents written by Anne herself. Overall, Little Duchess, Anne of Brittany is a fascinating portrait of a remarkable woman who played a pivotal role in the history of France and Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
