Cover has rubbing and edge wear. Name and date on inside front board. Foxing on pages near frontis and other pages with photographs. Front hinge cracked. Overall inside pages are clean and biding is tight.Illustrated with black and white photographs. Maximilian and Carlota's reign, from 1864 to 1867, was marked from the start by extravagance and ambition and ended with the execution of Maximilian by firing squad, with Carlota on the brink of madness. This epoch moment in the arc of French colonial rule, which spans North American and European history at a critical juncture on both continents, shows how Napoleon III's failure to save Maximilian disgusted Europeans and sealed his own fate.
