Excerpt from The Storm and Its Portents: Scenes From the Reign of Louis XVIIn writing the following pages I have adhered to the chronological order of the events here related. None of the episodes are directly connected with each other more than that they form part of one vast whole, the minuter details of which they help to fill up. There is nothing but profit to be got from such study, and the more minutely the period of Louis XVI. Is sifted by posterity the more certainly will future generations avoid the reproduction of such disastrous misfortunes as characterized that period. Finally, I may be allowed to state that the whole of these sketches are now published for the first time.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
