| Summary | "Throne-Makers" by William Roscoe Thayer is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the impactful figures behind the political and social transformations of Europe, with a particular focus on leaders like Bismarck, Napoleon III, Kossuth, and Garibaldi. It seeks to portray how these “throne-makers” shaped their nations and the overall landscape of European politics during a tumultuous period. The opening of "Throne-Makers" introduces readers to the central theme of the book: the evolution of governance in Europe from 1789 onward, highlighting the personalities that influenced these changes. Thayer emphasizes the diverse political structures emerging across different nations and the role of influential leaders in crafting their respective regimes. The beginning sets the stage for a detailed examination of key figures, starting with Otto von Bismarck, offering insights into his character and political philosophy as he navigates the complexities of Prussian governance and ambition amidst a fragmented Germany.
