Drawing on the 8th-century chronicle, the Liber Historiae Francorum, this book presents a highly accurate view of the society in which Charlemagne's ancestors set themselves on the road to power and throws new light on the early family members themselves and on the factors which directed politics in the Frankish "dark ages."
