''Queen and Cardinal'' is a memoir written by Mrs. Colquhoun Grant about the life of Anne of Austria, the Queen of France, and her relationship with Cardinal Mazarin. The book delves into the political and personal lives of these two powerful figures during the 17th century. Anne of Austria was married to King Louis XIII and later served as regent for her son, Louis XIV, while Cardinal Mazarin was a trusted advisor and confidant to both the queen and the young king. The book explores the complex and often tumultuous relationship between Anne and Mazarin, who was rumored to have been her lover. It also provides insight into the political climate of the time, including the Franco-Spanish War and the Fronde rebellion. Through detailed research and analysis, Mrs. Colquhoun Grant paints a vivid picture of the lives of Anne of Austria and Cardinal Mazarin, and their impact on French history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
