Connections
In reading the review written by William Anthony Hay of 1848, by Mike Rapport (post below this one), I came across the name of Metternich. I know the name, but little about the person. Thus, I googled the name; the first link was Wikipedia. In the article's bibliography I found the entry: Zamoyski, A. (2007). Rites of Peace: The fall of Napoleon & the Congress of Vienna. New York: HarperCollins Publishers. HWPL owns it.

Reviewed by William Anthony Hay
Dramatic changes over the early 19th century and the long shadow of the French Revolution set the context for 1848.
