A man of logic and reason, he transformed how we think about nations and nationality.

Filled with period music, dance, and plenty of romance, "His Red Eminence" transports you back to the court of King Louis XIII in all its vibrant and living color.Includes eight period songs, plus prayers, a detailed timeline, and extensive bibliography so you can keep learning.
