Yet there was an innocence about Antoinette, thrust as a child into the chillingly formal French court.Married to the maladroit, ill-mannered Dauphin, Antoinette found pleasure in costly entertainments and garments. She spent lavishly while her overtaxed and increasingly hostile subjects blamed her for France's plight. In time Antoinette matured into a courageous Queen, and when their enemies finally closed in, Antoinette followed her inept husband to the guillotine in one last act of bravery.In To the Scaffold, Carolly Erickson provides an estimation of a lost Queen that is psychologically acute, richly detailed, and deeply moving.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51534187528480,"sku":"NEW0312322054","price":17.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71j9K7fKJvL.jpg?v=1777357959","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/to-the-scaffold-the-life-of-marie-antoinette-0312322054","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
