Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. 1st Edition. London. Constable and Robinson Ltd. 2004. First Edition. No printing remarks. Hard Cover. Medium 8vo. 6.5 x 9.3 . ([16.5cm x 23.5cm] . 305 pp. 14 lack and white photographic plates in the text as well as eight very attractive full page cartoon drawings. Britain and France have rarely been great friends, and towards the end of Queen Victoria's reign relations were exceptionally poor. Yet only three years after her death the situation was completely reversed. On 8 April 1904 the Entente Cordiale was signed between the two countries, a bond that would prove of increasing importance as the world moved towards its first great war. The detailed negotiation of the Entente was the work of two Foreign Secretaries, the Marquess of Lansdowne and Théophile Delcassé, and their task was not easy - but it could scarcely have been contemplated without the extraordinary influence and tireless efforts of Edward VII. Dunlop reviews earlier attempts at entente and follows the ups and downs of relations with France against the background of the European situation. Edward's restricted life as Prince of Wales combined with his interpretation of the role of a constitutional monarch is particularly fascinating in the context of today's royal family. With engaging personal touches and a real feeling for the high diplomacy of the period, Dunlop's lively account offers both enjoyment and insight. N° de réf. du vendeur 26MAY2023008
