What Life Was Like: At Empire's End : Austro-Hungarian Empire Ad 1848-1918
- Used Book in Good Condition
Emperor Franz Josef was in his study when word reached him that his son, Crown Prince Rudolf, had committed suicide. Ten years later, a young Italian anarchist stabbed the Emperor's wife to death. And sixteen years after that, the Franz Josef's nephew and heir would be gunned down by a Bosnian Serb in Sarajevo-the event that propelled Europe into the world war. The Emperor would not live to see the end of the conflict, nor the subsequent dismemberment of his multinational empire.
