Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Louis-Philippe and His Sister: The Political Life Ro^le of Adelaide of Orleans, 1777-1847 In the following pages M. Arnaud has given an animated and picturesque survey of the chequered career of a woman who played a decisive part at a critical turning-point of French history, and who for many years exercised a marked influence over the course of European politics. Princess Adelaide was the trusted and beloved sister of Louis-Philippe; she shared his hopes and fears during the weary years of exile and during the still more irksome period of the Restoration; she was his confidant and counsellor throughout the long waiting game in which he had to combat the distrust of Legitimacy and allay the impatience of Liberalism; and when, for the second time, France threw off the Ancien Régime, it was largely thanks to her adroit and energetic action that Louis-Philippe secured the prize for which he had schemed so long and patiently.
