Books by Bailey S. Stone

Stone portrays the members of this great court of law as strategically situated individuals who worked to advance their own corporate pretentions while simultaneously advocating a precarious balance of monarchical, aristocratic, middle-class, and "popular" interests. Their apparent radicalism disguised their efforts to preserve the traditional legalistic French monarchy.
