Reseña del libro "Servants of the Sun King: Grandeur and Peril in the France of Louis Xiv (en Inglés)"

Jean-Paul Morot, and his charming wife Jeanne-Marie, are privileged servants at the Court of Louis XIV, The Sun King. Jean-Paul holds the position as first assistant to the famed Landscape Architect, Andre Le Notre. Jeanne-Marie is First Seamstress to Louis XIV's Queen, Marie-Therese. Each of them does exceptionally talented work and is held in high regard at Versailles, where balls, concerts, lavish suppers, and ballet-plays keep the courtiers in an endless round of extravagant pleasures. Yet if the Court were to discover that Jean-Paul and Jeanne-Marie are of the Reformed Faith, that is that they are Protestants, they could lose their positions, and even find themselves imprisoned. While they are quiet about their religious persuasions, their immediate relatives in another town have suffered dearly for being discovered. Will Jean-Paul and Jeanne-Marie escape the persecution within France? Can friends and colleagues assist them, not merely for themselves but also for their new baby daughter? Or will Jean-Paul and Jeanne-Marie join family members in the merciless galleys and the pitiless workhouse?
