Rudolph: The Tragedy of Mayerling is a historical non-fiction book written by Carl Lonyay. The book tells the story of Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria-Hungary and his tragic death at the Mayerling hunting lodge in 1889. The author uses historical documents, letters, and eyewitness accounts to reconstruct the events leading up to Rudolph's death, including his troubled marriage to Princess Stephanie of Belgium, his political struggles, and his descent into depression and drug addiction. The book also explores the political and social climate of Austria-Hungary at the time, including the tensions between the ruling Habsburg family and the growing nationalist movements in the empire. Lonyay provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the tragedy, the aftermath, and the impact it had on the Habsburg dynasty and European politics. Overall, Rudolph: The Tragedy of Mayerling is a gripping and insightful account of one of the most notorious events in European history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
