Les quarante-cinq — Tome 2 by Alexandre Dumas and Auguste Maquet
"Les quarante-cinq — Tome 2" by Alexandre Dumas and Auguste Maquet is a historical novel written in 1847–1848. This second volume concludes the Valois trilogy, following the religious wars tearing France apart under Henri III's troubled reign. Set in 1585–1586, the story weaves together three major threads: intrigue in Paris, Henri de Navarre's rising power in Béarn, and the Duke of Anjou's disastrous Flanders campaign. The novel brings back beloved characters while
mixing historical events with romantic invention, including the vengeful Dame de Monsoreau's final confrontation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
