The Habsburgs: Embodying Empire
Andrew Wheatcroft
The Habsburgs have been described as demons - responsible for a 'history of atrocities'; and, as dodos - living fossils unable to adapt to the modern world. This book features figures as mad Queen Juana, progressing through Spain with her husband's decaying body; the 'heroically fertile' Maria Theresa; and, the Maximilian, 'Emperor' of Mexico.
