A World Restored: Metternich, Castlereagh and the Problems of Peace, 1812-1822

""A World Restored"" is a historical book written by Henry A. Kissinger that delves into the political climate of Europe during the early 19th century. The book focuses on the efforts of two prominent diplomats, Klemens von Metternich of Austria and Robert Stewart, Viscount Castlereagh of Britain, to restore peace in Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. Kissinger examines the challenges they faced, including the balance of power, national sovereignty, and the rise of nationalism. The book also explores the impact of the Congress of Vienna, which brought together European powers to negotiate a new territorial settlement. Kissinger argues that the Congress of Vienna was a critical turning point in European history, as it established a new order that would last for decades. ""A World Restored"" provides a detailed analysis of the political, economic, and social factors that shaped Europe during this period, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of diplomacy and international relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
