- Synopsis
- King, a Fullbright scholar who taught European history at the U. of Kentucky for many years, has uncovered a wealth of previously uncovered material on the Congress of Vienna, where the borders of Europe were re-drawn after the defeat of Napoleon. King focuses on the larger-than-life personalities who attended the historic conference, which included princes, dukes and tsars. King employs a rich and detailed narrative style that will delight history buffs, especially when it comes to documenting the espionage that remained a secret for almost two centuries.
