Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Duc De Saint-Simon, Vol. 1 of 4: On the Times of Louis XIV. And the Regency
How was it that so marked an historical vocation should have formed itself at so early an age and been found as it were full-grown in the bosom of the Court? Whence came this mousquetaire of nineteen, so firmly resolved at that time of life to transmit the things of his period with all their complications and their circumstances?
