Description:
A concise history of France from prehistory to the present, recounting the great events and personalities and exploring France's cultural and political influence today.




Artists, martyrs, kings, revolutionaries: France's sense of national identity is inextricably linked to its dramatic history, which fascinates the world and attracts millions each year to visit its chateaux and cathedrals, boulevards and vineyards. Ancient roots allied to a social, political and military history that has witnessed revolution, conflict and occupation mean that France holds a unique position in the modern world. In this short, easy-to-digest history of a vast subject, Jeremy Black succinctly narrates how France's past has created its distinct character.




Country and destination, nation and idea, France has an incomparable cultural legacy, and exerts a powerful artistic, intellectual and political influence across the globe. Black's vivid take on history emphasizes the unexpected nature of events and unpredictable outcomes on a fragmented country, from the prehistoric cave paintings of Lascaux to the origins of Gothic architecture, from Monet and Degas to the Lumière brothers, and from the cataclysm of the 1789 Revolution through the countercultural student protests of 1968 to today's gilets jaunes. Black's concise, insightful tour of the key historical moments and vibrant personalities that shaped France provides an indispensable guide to understanding the country today.

Great watch.
Great watch, I mean it’s a Casio so that’s not exactly a hard sell but it looks great if this is your style of watch. I have “a few” watches and about 30 Casios this one is a fun design with a lot of functionality.

Solid, durable watch
This is a solid add to my collection. Casio doesn't make a bad watch, this AE-2000W-1AVCF has all the functionality and durability we've come to expect from Casio. Easy recommendation, especially at this price.

Casio for the Win
I have the Casio W-218 (which is still kicking) and wanted an upgrade. This model has everything I need; full date, more water resistance, mineral glass, and is aesthetically pleasing. The 10 Year Battery is an added bonus. Like most Casio watches this one is easy to set up and use. Fits great on the wrist and functions very well. I plan on buying a replacement strap eventually but I expect no issues from the watch itself.

The perfect size wallet
Color: Leather Logo - Brown
A well-made wallet should last a long time My previous Eddie bauer wallet lasted a long time. Should’ve got rid of it sooner, but who wants to part with a good product? The new wallet is made of excellent leather fits my pocket well it’s a little costly but worth it. You won’t be disappointed by the quality of the leather the design of the wallet. It’s comfortable to use right out of the package.
