The Magnificent Montmorency: The Life and Death of Henri Duc de Montmorency 1595-1632 is a biography written by Cyril Hughes Hartmann. The book chronicles the life of Henri Duc de Montmorency, a prominent French nobleman who lived during the 16th and 17th centuries. Montmorency was a military commander and politician who played a significant role in the French Wars of Religion and the Thirty Years' War. The book explores Montmorency's upbringing, his education, his military career, and his political ambitions. It also delves into his personal life, including his relationships with his family, his friends, and his enemies. The book provides insight into the political and social climate of France during Montmorency's lifetime, as well as the struggles and challenges he faced as a member of the French aristocracy. Hartmann's biography is well-researched and provides a comprehensive overview of Montmorency's life, including his tragic end. Montmorency was executed in 1632 for his involvement in a rebellion against King Louis XIII, and Hartmann explores the events leading up to his death and the impact it had on his family and the wider French society. Overall, The Magnificent Montmorency is a fascinating read for anyone interested in French history, politics, and society during the early modern period. It provides a detailed and engaging portrait of a complex and influential figure in French history, and sheds light on the challenges and opportunities faced by the French aristocracy during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
