History 1643794
Publisher Description:
In battle he fought with legendary valor . . .
At court, dressed in silks and ribbons, he openly favored his male lovers . . .
Despised but feared by his brother, he was the perpetual loser in a lifelong sibling rivalry . . .
"Philippe, brother of Louis XIV, might have been a prince of great renown in the service of the king--had the king only shown him his faith and trust. . . . This is an excellent book. I congratulate the author on a work that is objective and of high quality." Henry, Count of Paris
