About this book
André Hallays wrote The Spell of the Heart of France, subtitled The Towns, Villages and Châteaux About Paris. The contents list chapters on Maintenon, La Ferté-Milon, Meaux and Germigny, among others. The introduction says that whoever has read The Spell of Alsace by André Hallays will need no introduction to the present book.
The text says Madame de Maintenon continued to make the King acquainted with a new country which was unknown to him, which is the commerce of friendship and conversation, without constraint and without evasion. The text says Louis XIV had commissioned Le Nôtre to adjust this beautiful and ugly property. The text says the religious chronicles of the abbey of Notre Dame de Livry, founded at the end of the twelfth century as a monastery of canons regular, offer no episode worthy of attention.
