This work is thoroughly sourced, with copious notes, which must be consulted for comprehensive understanding, and features a large index. Charles VII, in six volumes, was one of the major works of Gaston Du Fresne de Beaucourt (1833-1902), who began research on his subject in 1856, and began publishing the series in 1881. One must assume that a man who worked on a six volume biography of a king was not opposed to monarchy. Although Beaucourt had a charitable view of his subject, if not of jealous and protective admiration, he did not fail to do his duty and discuss views opposed to his own. The work as a whole is a precursor in some ways to total history, in which the subject is put in context of almost everything that was written about him in the sources. One must assume that Beaucourt read every document penned during the reign of Charles VII, at least as it related to royal history. The result is an astounding monument. This is the first and only translation of Beaucourt into English. Every effort has been made to convey the spirit of the writing style of Beaucourt while making it accessible to a modern English speaking audience. F.H. Wallis Translation continues to seek out and publish older works of the highest scholarship on the history of France.
