The years between the Fronde and the French Revolution were the longest period of calm in French history. For much of it, France dominated the international scene in Europe and made efforts to achieve a comparable role in the wider world. Meanwhile, French cultural achievements set standards imitated everywhere. This volume, bringing together an international team of contributors, surveys the full variety of the period on its own terms rather than as a mere prelude to later revolutionary upheavals.

After all it is a "short" Oxford history and every significant event/information is considered in this edition. It accurately covers economics, society, culture, politics, foreign affairs and the three kings during the period of 1648-1788 in Old Regime France. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone with a strong interest in this most significant and fascinating history of one of Europe's most influential nations, La Belle France.
