The definitive biography of Talleyrand by the inimitable Duff Cooper
Duff Cooper’s classic biography charts the remarkable progress of Talleyrand; a silver-tongued master diplomat, infamous turncoat, peacekeeper and libertine. Talleyrand held high office in five successive regimes from France’s Ancient Regime, into the Revolution of 1789, Robespierre’s Terror, Napoleon’s epic wars, and on through restored kings to more revolution. Duff Cooper brings Talleyrand vividly to life and paints an exhilarating picture of this tumultuous period in European history
