Le Soleil was a monarchist daily, more moderate than others, sold for five centimes at the end of the nineteenth and start of the twentieth century. It was located in the rue du Croissant.[1] It was one of two French newspapers that gave the best coverage of international news, along with Le Temps.[2]
