2008rif. 2342968London: Harper Perennial 2008. 3rd Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 5x1x7. Third printing. Spine creased pages toned. 2008 Trade Paperback. xviii 634 pp. In the wake of his disastrous Russian campaign of 1812 Napoleon's imperious grip on Europe began to weaken raising the question of how the Continent was to be reconstructed after his defeat. There were many who dreamed of a peace to end all wars in which the interests of peoples as well as those of rulers would be taken into account. But what followed was an unseemly and at times brutal scramble for territory by the most powerful states in which countries were traded as if they had been private and their inhabitants counted like cattle. The results fixed at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 not only laid the foundations of the European world we know; it put in place a social order and a security system that lie at the root of many of the problems which dog the world today. Although the defining moments took place in Vienna and the principle players included Tsar Alexander I of Russia the Austrian Chancellor Metternich the Duke of Wellington and the French master of diplomacy Talleyrand as well as Napoleon himself the accepted view of the gathering of statesmen reordering the Continent in elegant salons is a false one. Many of the crucial questions were decided on the battlefield or in squalid roadside cottages amid the vagaries of war. And the proceedings in Vienna itself were not as decorous as is usually represented. Drawing on a wide range of first-hand sources in six languages which include not only official documents private letters diaries and first-hand accounts but also the reports of police spies and informers Adam Zamoyski gets below the thin veneer of courtliness and reveals that the new Europe was forged by men in thrall to fear greed and lust in an atmosphere of moral depravity in which sexual favours were traded as readily as provinces and the 'souls' who inhabited them. He has created a chilling account full of menace as well as frivolity. Harper Perennial paperback books
