Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Romance of the House of Savoy 1003-1519 The history of the House of Savoy has running through its pages so large an element of romance, that no excuse need be urged for dwelling almost exclusively on the dramatic side of its story. The object of this book is to place before the English reader in the introductory chapter a short and concise history of the House from its earliest times down to the present day; and then in the body of the work to enlarge upon the chief personages who by the greatness and picturesqueness of their lives appeal most to the imagination. The author has dealt principally with the anecdotal character of these princes and princesses, and enlarged and dilated on the personal doings and experiences of these "high dames and mighty earls" rather than on their political lives.
