Although you won't find any new and interesting twists in this book about the death of Crown Prince Rudolf and Mary Vetsera, you will find easy reading that portrays the events at Mayerling in a straight forward, easy to follow account. The author promised to give the true account of how she died, and I was hoping for something new;I think that most people already know that Rudolf killed her and then killed himself. The pictures were excellent, and several of them I had never seen before. If you're new to the Mayerling legend, I highly recommend reading this one first

I found this Book informative and interesting as regards the European Monarchy. This book gives insight into one branch of the Austrian/Hungarian Royalty.
This is one solution to the death of Mary Vetsera and her royal companion. I presume there are other solutions that will appear in the future as well as the past. This was a good read.Crime at Mayerling: The Life and Death of Mary Vetsera: With New Expert Opinions Following the Desecration of Her Grave. (Studies in Austrian Literature, Culture, and Thought.
