Description

"Comment la France est-elle devenue une grande puissance militaire, la première sur terre et sur mer sous Louis XIV ? Trois siècles durant, un effort colossal a été exigé du royaume par les monarques Bourbon pour former, équiper et entretenir armées et flottes. De ce gigantesque investissement humain, financier, matériel, technologique, logistique et réglementaire sont nés des régiments, des forteresses, des vaisseaux soutenus par un formidable appareil productif fait d'ateliers, de forges, d'arsenaux utilisant les ressources du vaste royaume terrien mais aussi celles d'autres pays. C'est l'histoire de ce grand chantier, qui a mobilisé autour du roi "absolu" le concours de tous ses sujets, que nous raconte ici Olivier Chaline Et si la grandeur de la France avait été, davantage et plus longtemps qu'on ne l'imagine, le résultat d'un élan conjoint ?"--Page 4 of cover.
