Summary: "England and the Orléans Monarchy" by Major John Hall is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the complex relationships and diplomatic interactions between England and France during the reign of Louis Philippe, particularly focusing on key political events and crises that defined this period. It covers the rise and fall of the Orléans monarchy, emphasizing the entente cordiale and its subsequent disruptions, along with the broader implications of these events on European politics. The opening of the text sets the stage by discussing the volatile nature of French politics leading up to the July Revolution of 1830, which resulted in the abdication of Charles X and the ascension of Louis Philippe as the "Citizen King." Hall delves into the socio-political sentiments of the time, revealing the mixed motivations behind the revolution and the diverse interests of the French populace, which included both Liberal and Bonapartist factions. This section also highlights the international context, pointing to the apprehension that Louis Philippe's governance and the revolution could provoke further unrest across Europe, especially among neighboring monarchies that had vested interests in maintaining the status quo.
