By James Howell

Lustra Ludovici, Or the Life of the Late Victorious King of France, Levvis the XIII. (And of his Cardinall de Richelieu.) Divided Into Seven Lustres. Consilium Armorum Cardo. by James Howell offers a fascinating glimpse into the reign of Louis XIII and the powerful influence of Cardinal Richelieu. Published in 1646, this historical work provides a detailed account of the French monarchy during a pivotal period in European history.

Howell's biography, divided into seven 'lustres' or periods of five years, explores the political landscape, military campaigns, and key events that shaped Louis XIII's rule. The book sheds light on the complex relationship between the king and his chief minister, Cardinal Richelieu, whose strategic acumen and ambition left an indelible mark on France. A valuable resource for historians and readers interested in 17th-century European history, 'Lustra Ludovici' offers insights into the lives and legacies of two of France's most significant figures.
