Description
Frederic Morton’s account of one year in the dying days of the Habsburg Empire was published in 1979 and still remains one of the most gripping tellings of that dramatic tale. The focus is Crown Prince Rudolf, errant son of Emperor Franz Joseph I, whose darkly gothic tastes and sense of the morbid led to a sensationally early death in what may have been a suicide pact with his mistress. This is the Folio Society edition of 2006 in very good condition, with the original slipcase.
