Description
An audiobook from the “Kruzhgoror/Treasures of History” series.
Tell you how a modest desire of Charlemagne to have a living elephant for himself affected international relations of the 9th century. Who was the model for Bluebeard in Perrault’s fairy tale—and what did he have to do with Joan of Arc? Was the famous kidnapping of Queen Marie Antoinette’s necklace just an ordinary crime, or part of a political intrigue? Why did Georges Danton get the nickname “Cataline,” and who destroyed his family happiness?
Who prepared a conspiracy that nearly cost the crown and Napoleon Bonaparte his life? All these are real, not made up, stories by the well-known writer-historian Anatoly Petrovich Levandovsky, which contain elements of detective work—intertwined secrets that the author tries to unravel. But above all, it turns out that strict truth is sometimes more surprising than the most intricate fiction…
