The Last of the Valois V2: And the Accession of Henry of Navarre, 1559-1589 is a historical book written by Catherine Charlotte Jackson and published in 1888. The book explores the political and social events that took place in France during the reign of the Valois dynasty, which lasted from 1328 to 1589. The second volume of the book focuses on the period from 1559 to 1589, which saw the reign of three Valois kings - Francis II, Charles IX, and Henry III. This period was marked by religious conflicts between Catholics and Protestants, which culminated in the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in 1572. The book also covers the rise of Henry of Navarre, a Protestant prince who became the first Bourbon king of France in 1589. Jackson provides a detailed account of Henry's life and his struggles to gain the French throne, which was contested by the Catholic League. Overall, The Last of the Valois V2 is a comprehensive and insightful account of a tumultuous period in French history. It is a valuable resource for historians and anyone interested in the politics and culture of Renaissance France.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
