Histoire dessinée de la France #7

Two figures perch together on the stone ledge of a soaring Gothic cathedral, gazing out over a twilight landscape — it's a quietly captivating image that sets the tone perfectly for this seventh volume in the Histoire dessinée de la France series. Croisades et Cathédrales: D'Aliénor à Saint Louis brings medieval France to life through the collaborative vision of Fanny Madeline and Daniel Casanave, weaving together the era of crusades and cathedral-building into an accessible, beautifully crafted graphic work. Published in 2019 by La Découverte, it's a handsome addition to a series that makes French history genuinely inviting for curious readers of all kinds.
