The life of Henri IV's closest advisor.
Maximilien de Béthune, born in 1559 and died in 1641, was a statesman and superintendent of finance, Henri IV's closest advisor.
A Protestant, he was also a comrade-in-arms of King Henri IV, accompanying him in most of the Wars of Religion.
A great economist, he helped reduce taxes on peasants, cut the royal debt from 300 million livres to 30 million, fight corruption and tax embezzlement, and improve the distribution of tax burdens.
A man from the Huguenot nobility, Protestant but a great economist, these books, although only part of the collection, will be highly informative for enthusiasts of the war of religion & economics under Henri IV!
