Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book tells the remarkable story of Count Daniel O'Connell, a fascinating figure who navigated the complex world of 18th-century European society. Born into an Irish family, he rose through the ranks of the French military during a time of upheaval and change, becoming a colonel in the Royal Swedish Regiment and later commanding the prestigious Salm-Salm Regiment. The author draws on letters, official documents, and family records to recreate the count's life, which was marked by ambition, social climbing, and a quest for recognition. We see the count caught in the currents of political intrigue, seeking to secure his position at court through his noble lineage and military service. His letters vividly portray the social anxieties of the period, as he strives to attain the elusive pedigree necessary to access the highest echelons of power and society. The book also reveals the count's involvement in Irish affairs, as he attempts to help his relatives and compatriots, a testament to his enduring connection to his homeland. In the face of the French Revolution, the count's carefully constructed world crumbled. His loyalties were tested, and he was forced to make difficult choices. This book offers a unique window into the lives of Irish Catholics in the French military and sheds light on the social and political landscape of pre-revolutionary France, providing valuable insights into the experience of Irish people abroad during a pivotal period of history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
