I am committed to finishing this book, but I am r ally exhausted of the authors gossip like conjecture about Count Fersen and Marie Antoinette. She states her belief as fact, such as blatantly saying Count Fersen was sleeping in Marie's bed when the mob attacked Versailles. It lowers the quality of story, and reads like a Philippa Gregory novel.

Goldstone has a habit of stating her theory as fact. Her notes on pg. 350 declare that Fersen and Antoinette were definitely loves and Louis Charles was his son. A few chapters back she declared that Maria Christina told Emperor Joseph she had an affair was his wife Isabel to disuade his devotion to the later. Both statements lack any proof or supporting clues.

The previous chapter made me dislike Peter of Russia more than I have before.
