Synopsis
Here, the lives of French Queens of England such as Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabella the 'She-Wolf of France' and Catherine de Valois are described with fresh insight. Meanwhile, the non-famous French people, who nonetheless shaped the culture of England's capital are honoured with a thorough study of their cultural habits. From William the Conqueror through to London as the capital of the Free French during World War Two, this book honours a large but little-studied people; the French in London.

About the Author
Isabelle Janvrin and Catherine Rawlinson were both born and brought up in France, both studied art and history, and both married Englishmen. After many years in London, they combined their interests in history and art history to research the presence of French people in this vast city.

The French in London
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Ever since 1066 there has been a substantial French presence in London. It is now said to be the sixth most populous French city and this book illustrates, explains, and exposes how this came about over more than a 1000 years. Full of individual stories and overlooked details covering a common history, from William the Conqueror, via the Huguenots (e.g. David Garrick's family), and the emigres of the French Revolution ( such as the families of Joseph Bazelgette, Augustus Pugin and Isambard Brunel), and on to London, the capital of the Free French during WWII. It is also a guide book to those streets, museums, monuments, churches and art dedicated to the French of London. Voltaire, Rimbaud, Verlaine, Foch and dozens of others are all honoured by plaques or statues. Traces and stories of those escaping the French Revolution and the Commune are remembered. Talleyrand, Chateaubriand and Madame de Stael all lived in London during those turbulent years. Seller Inventory # LU-9781908524652
