Metternich: Strategist and Visionary (Siemann Wolfram)(Paperback) - diskuze

"A superb biographical portrait and work of historical analysis...Comprehensive, absorbing and authoritative...Let us hope that it will serve if not as a manual then at least as an inspiration--good statesmanship is needed more than ever."
--Brendan Simms, Wall Street Journal "Brilliantly refreshes our understanding of Metternich and his era...[He] was an intellectual in politics of a kind now rare."
--Christopher Clark, London Review of Books "Succeed[s] in forcing readers to wonder whether Metternich's efforts to defend an essentially conservative order against populists and terrorists are so different from the struggles that liberal democracies face today."
--Andrew Moravcsik, Foreign Affairs "The culmination and encapsulation of a life's work...it is a running joy, full of winking sidelights and delightful detours."
--Times Literary
