Now, \"people\" are back. In a postmodern age it is easier to appreciate the decisive role played by individuals, as they ride their luck and seize their opportunity to bend the world to their will. As these essays by twelve eminent historians demonstrate, biography is too important to be left to the amateurs. Among the rich variety of strong characters analyzed here are an Austrian emperor, a German kaiser, a Victorian prime minister, an Italian dictator, and an American president.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51940644815136,"sku":"NEW0521473306","price":165.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/history-and-biography-essays-in-honour-of-derek-beales-0521473306","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
