Philip Augustus is a biography written by William Holden Hutton that tells the story of one of the most important French kings of the Middle Ages. The book takes readers on a journey through the life of Philip II, also known as Philip Augustus, who ruled France from 1180 to 1223. Hutton's book provides a comprehensive look at Philip's reign, including his political and military accomplishments, as well as his personal life and relationships. Readers will learn about Philip's early years, his ascension to the throne, and his efforts to expand and strengthen the French monarchy. The book also explores Philip's relationships with other European powers, including England and the Holy Roman Empire, and his role in the Third Crusade. Hutton examines Philip's impact on French culture and society, including his patronage of the arts and his efforts to promote education and literacy. Throughout the book, Hutton draws on a wide range of primary sources, including contemporary chronicles and letters, to provide a rich and detailed portrait of Philip Augustus and his times. The result is a compelling and informative biography that sheds new light on one of the most important figures in French history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
