Publisher's summary

Louis XI: this rebellious king was first called "The Prudent", in reference to his cunning ways, and then, "The Universal Spider" when it appeared that his ceaseless intrigues had turned into full-blown webs of plots and conspiracies. Learn how the Cunning King of France was able to eliminate his rebellious vassals, expand royal power, and strengthen the economic development of his country, all through the power of isolating treaties, precise timing, and intense diplomatic activities.

This collection of audiobooks will help you understand a crucial part of the history of French monarchy. For each King, you will find a detailed description of the style of his reign and his political achievements, narrated in a lively way.

A very short overview

THIS IS NOT A FULL BOOK. It's an overview that stuffs decades of history into under an hour. For what it's worth, it was a good listen. If your looking for a timeline of Louie XI, this is a good one. However, that's all it is.
