Paperback. Condizione: Good. In 1812, at the end of the Napoleonic Wars, a congress convened in Vienna in which the fate of Europe was to be determined for the next hundred years. Attending were the great statesmen of the time -- the wily French foreign minister, Talleyrand; his brave but misguided British counterpart, Lord Castlereagh; the conservative Austrian chancellor, Prince Metternich; and the idealistic but unstable tsar Alexander. Beginning with Napoleon's harrowing retreat from Moscow, the pace of the narrative holds throughout the negotiations in the Austrian capital, where the power struggle to both restore a lost world and ensure a stable future took place. Harold Nicolson's classic is narrative history at its best. "With swift pace, clear focus and a series of brilliant character sketches, this is narrative history at its best." -- The New York Times.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. The Fall of the Dynasties and The Age of Reason, published in 1963 and co-authored by Edmund Taylor and Sir Harold Nicolson, is a historical work that explores the decline of European monarchies and the rise of rational thought during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book examines the political, social, and cultural upheavals that led to the collapse of several powerful dynasties, such as those in Russia, Germany, and Austria-Hungary, and the shift towards democratic ideals and intellectual movements.

Illustrated with B&W photographs. NB: Sir Harold Nicolson (born 1886, Tehran, Iranâ"died 1968, Sissinghurst Castle, Kent, England) was a British diplomat and author of more than 125 books, including political essays, travel accounts, and mystery novels. His three-volume Diaries and Letters (1966â"68) is a valuable document of British social and political life from 1930 to 1964. Nicolson was born in Iran, where his father, Sir Arthur Nicolson (later 1st Baron Carnock of Carnock), was chargà dâaffaires. Throughout his youth, his family moved about from diplomatic post to post, in central Europe, Turkey, Madrid, and Russia. He studied at Balliol College, Oxford (receiving a âpass degreeâ in 1907; he received a B.A. and M.A. in 1930). He entered the Foreign Office in 1909, with which he remained for 20 years, serving at such overseas posts as Madrid, Tehran, and Berlin. In 1929 Nicolson decided to abandon his diplomatic career. He had already published several biographies: Paul Verlaine (1921), Tennyson (1923), Byron, the Last Journey (1924), Swinburne (1926), and Some People (1927), as well as a novel and other pieces. On January 1, 1930, he became a columnist for Lord Beaverbrookâs London Evening Standard and also, on that day, began a diary, in which he made daily entries until October 4, 1964. (Three volumes, of which this is the first, were edited and published by his son Nigel Nicolson in the 1960s.). The volume is in excellent condition, unmarked, seemingly unread, tight, square, and clean. The unclipped ($7.50) dust jacket is lightly sunned and has several small tears along the edges and at the corners, else fine. FINE/VERY GOOD. Harold Nicolson Diaries & Letters. 1. B&W Photographs.
