1. The masterpiece of a master. Pierre de Lanaud is a pioneer and important representative in the study of the history of the Second French Empire. His works have novel perspectives that others dare not express. It deeply analyzes the inner mechanism of the rise and fall of Napoleon III and the Second French Empire. 2. There is no other Chinese version. Only by understanding Napoleon III can we understand the inside story of Queen Eugenie's involvement in politics, factional struggles, and palace strife, and understand the internal and external causes of the rise, decline, and decline of the Second French Empire. 3. The impact is very wide. This book is the third part of the "History of the Second Empire Trilogy", which provides a new perspective on the demise of the French Second Empire. The book was an instant hit upon its publication in 1895. The famous translator Helen Hunt Johnson quickly translated it into English and sold it well in the United States. 4. Panoramic illustrations add luster. A selection of more than a hundred exquisite functional illustrations. Let readers enjoy a feast of thoughts while drinking a cup of aesthetically aged wine. There is a collision of ideas and a shock to the aesthetics. While reading the text, enjoy the beautiful pictures. The works of an academician of the French Academy of Humanities and a giant in the history of the French Second Empire sort out the historical logic of imperial endowment, harem interference in politics, multiple values, and the rise and fall of national destiny, and reveal the truth about the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War and the end of France's European hegemony.
