Summary of Edmond Taylor's The Fall of the Dynasties
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The visit that the Habsburg heir and his wife, Sophie, paid to Sarajevo lasted only an hour, but the drama of those 60 or 70 minutes has revolutionized the course of modern history.
#2 The view of Sarajevo from the southwest is a lovely one. The valley of the Miljacka, a shallow torrent that cuts the town in two, narrows at its eastern outskirts to a rugged gorge commanded by the ruined Turkish fort from which it takes its name.
#3 The marriage of Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria-Este (as he preferred to be called) and Countess Sophie Chotek was a model of bourgeois felicity. It was in fact something more than that: the day they took their last ride together, they were still in love.
#4 The Archduke's numerous enemies exploited every weapon in the armory of protocol to vex and humiliate him. The Archduke, a brooding, vindictive man, set up a sort of rival Court at his Belvedere Palace on a hilltop overlooking Vienna.
