Praise for "Marie Antoinette: The Journey"
"There has long been the need for an authoritative biography of
France's last queen. Now, finally, Antonia Fraser has completed the
task."
--Amanda Foreman, author of "Georgiana: Duchess of Devonshire
""An important addition both to our understanding of the queen and
to the causes of the French Revolution. With her customary
diligence and eye for telling detail, Fraser absolves Marie
Antoinette of the vast majority of accusations made against her
over the centuries."
--Andrew Roberts, author of "Waterloo: June 18, 1815: The Battle
for Modern Europe
""A brilliant picture not only of politics and revolution, but also
of the cruelty of man to man--and a woman more sinned against than
sinning."
--Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of "Stalin: The Court of the Red
Tsar
""Drama, betrayal, religion and sex, it's all here, adorned by
often fascinating, at times esoteric detail."
--Hazel Mills, "The Guardian"
