Note 575 — Chapter VI
Reading edition
There are few more interesting annals in the history of war than the racy, egotistical, garrulous, yet sometimes pithy narrative of this veteran leader. The fifth book of Montluc’s Commentaires is wholly taken up with the war in Guyenne in 1562-63. His correspondence during the same period is in IV, 111-225; add Beza, Histoire des églises réformées, which is remarkably accurate and impartial.
