Hey. I did Louis XIV in my AS and A2 year so I can reccomend some stuff.

You won't really find many 'revision' books but you can find good books that take you through his entire reign and give you a lot of information as well as analyis. My personal favourites are Briggs, Sturdy, Shennan which you can find all on Amazon. Sturdy in particular is very accesible and tells you almost everything you will need to know about Louis' reign. PM me if you need any help on anything to do with the course French history 1610-1715 is pretty much my strongpoint.

Access to History does a fairly good one, and the Shennan Lancaster pamphlet is very helpful, there are no 'revision guides' as such, you just have to do a lot of reading in the library or on the internet around the subject as opposed to 'learning' if this is for your document studies module
