Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book immerses readers in the complex life and reign of King Ferdinand VII of Spain, an enigmatic figure who ascended to the throne amidst turbulent political upheavals. The author delves into Ferdinand's early life, marked by illness, a haphazard education, and the influence of ambitious individuals like his tutor, Escoiquiz, who instilled in him a deep mistrust of others. The book sheds light on Ferdinand's marriages, first to Princess Maria Antonia of Naples and later to Princess Maria Isabel of Portugal, and explores the political machinations surrounding these unions. The author also examines Ferdinand's reign, which was characterized by his conservative policies, the restoration of the monarchy, and the loss of Spain's American colonies. By delving into primary sources, including diplomatic dispatches and correspondence, this book provides a nuanced portrait of a controversial monarch who played a pivotal role in shaping Spain's destiny during a tumultuous period.
