Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents never-before-seen documents that illuminate the operations of the Bastille prison during the reign of Louis XV from 1737-1748. The author has compiled accounts of arrests and incarcerations, revealing the inner workings of a feared institution once central to the monarchy's control of France. Bringing together a rich trove of first-hand accounts, including interrogation reports, official orders, and personal letters, this book offers a unique glimpse into the lives of those ensnared within the Bastille's walls. Through these documents, the reader gains unprecedented access to the experiences of prisoners, ranging from common criminals and accused spies to religious dissenters and political opponents. The accounts expose the harsh conditions, interrogations, and punishments endured by inmates, as well as the efforts of the monarchy to maintain order and suppress dissent. This book provides a fascinating and historically significant examination of the Bastille and its role in shaping the political and social landscape of 18th-century France.
