The opening of the book introduces the legacy of bibliophiles among the Bourbons, tracing their love for books back to the 14th century with the dukes of Bourbon. It highlights notable figures such as Louis II, who established a significant collection in Moulins, and Jean II, who not only led military victories but also cherished scholarly pursuits.
