The withdrawal of the Duc de Sully from affairs some months after the death of Henry IV. Has always seemed to me a subject inviting more attention and research than has been given it in these days. It was a momentous step for him to take, and fraught with the most far reaching results for France. I have considered his position for a long time, and have tried, by the aid of all the side-lights possible, chiefly the works of the late Professor Berthold Zeller, under whose eye I laboured, to bring before my readers what the real situation was; why and how the all-powerful Sully became gradually stripped of his power until he was compelled to resign early in the year 1611.
