Manuscript, in Louis XVI's hand, of his translation of Walpole's Historic doubts into French. Walpole's work focuses on the crimes supposed to have been committed by Richard III, in particular the murders of Henry VI; Henry VI's son Edward; his brother George, duke of Clarence; Edward V and his brother Richard; his own queen, and others; and examines, and in some cases invalidates, the evidence for these accusations. Louis XVI's translation contains numerous corrections, made during the last years of his life
