Summary:

"The importance of Czartoryski could hardly be overestimated for the whole complex of 19th century political adjustments from Russia to Spain, England to the Dardanelles.... Thorough and well-constructed, this definitive study will have a very considerable effect upon diplomatic history of the Napoleonic and Restoration periods in Europe."-S. Harrison Thomson, Editor, Journal of Central European Affairs, and Professor of History, University of Colorado.Originally published in 1955.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
