The Czech king and Roman Emperor Charles IV met with the French king Charles V in Paris in 1378. The author describes with intelectual brilliance and narrative talent the journey from Prague to Paris as a step by step journey reportage using contemporary French chronicles and vast medievistic literature as well as many beautiful illustrations. The result is an appealing account on medieval life, everyday and intelectual, mentality, grand European politics of the time or even medieval cuisine.
