Recenzii
'Beautifully written and elegantly translated by Rona Johnston, Müller's brilliantly researched study is the first to shift attention from the monarchs themselves to the children who embodied the institution's future. Drawing on prodigious research in many national and regional archives, Müller's analysis captures the European lineaments of monarchy's modern history without losing sight of national and dynastic peculiarities.' Christopher Clark, author of The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914
'Müller's book dazzles with the brilliance of his primary research and his ability to draw common threads and uncommon insights from a massive scholarly literature. Every chapter of this energetic, imaginative account offers sparkling aperçus about how young and not-so-young heirs to the thrones of Europe grew into their dynastic roles (or didn't).' James Retallack, author of Germany's Second Reich: Portraits and Pathways
'A very substantial contribution to our understanding of monarchy and politics in the “long” nineteenth century. For those who do not know much already about the period, Müller is a master at disentangling the various dynastic skeins, and weaving them back into a comprehensible story.' Brendan Simms, author of Europe: The Struggle for Supremacy, 1453 to the Present
'Müller's fascinating account of the royal heirs in nineteenth-century Europe reminds us that the “game of thrones” can only be played successfully by those who keep a keen eye on what lies ahead in the future. Both meticulously researched and highly entertaining, the book analyses the making of modern men and power relations at the top of society.'
