About this book
Count Paul Vassili, the pen name of Catherine Radziwill, signs this 1914 account of French public and social life across fifty years. It starts with the last days of Napoleon III and Eugénie, then moves through the Siege of Paris and the Commune to the Third Republic, with chapters on Gambetta, General Boulanger, the Panama scandal and the Dreyfus affair. Others cover Paris salons, the press, writers and foreign diplomats. The narrator arrived in Paris late in 1868 as secretary to the Russian embassy.
