Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from At the Court of His Catholic Majesty The life of a diplomat is as busy as it is varied. Unfortunately for him much of his work, - patient, persistent, silent negotiation and tactful, thoughtful, personal representation, - must be done without publicity, and the masses, seeing him principally as a participant in the ceremonies of the court or in the activities of society, often regard him as a mere idler. Custom has, indeed, fixed for him many social duties, as well in relation to the court to which he is accredited and the people of the country to which he is sent as to his own compatriots who may visit it. These duties unquestionably occupy much of his time, and upon the manner of their discharge depends in no small measure his success or his failure.
