Book Description
This work presents the memoirs of Louis de Rouvroy, Duke of Saint-Simon, who was a noble at the court of Versailles during the reign of Louis XIV. Saint-Simon generally disliked how King Louis reigned and disapproved of his bastard children because they ceremonially took precedence over the French nobility, such as himself. Thus, this work offers a differing viewpoint from many histories of the period and is valuable as such.
