The French Riviera: A History is a fascinating look back over the Riviera's rich history. The Riviera was part of Provence in France for much of its history and was often a microcosm of France itself, with many dynastic struggles and horrific blood-letting.Maps and plates illustrate The French Riviera: A History, and it is also full of fascinating anecdotes. Perfect to dip into, or follow the whole historical journey in one sitting, it will make the perfect addition to any history buff's bookcase.Michael Nelson shows the surprisingly cosmopolitan nature of the area in the early middle ages, such as the story of the finishing school run by Frankish kings in the 7th century where Siagrius, the ruler of the region, had studied and where the son of King Edwin of Northumbria in England was also sent.
