Maria Theresa of Austria is a biography written by J. Alexander Mahan that chronicles the life of the only female ruler of the Habsburg dynasty, Maria Theresa. Born in 1717, Maria Theresa ascended to the throne in 1740 at the age of 23, following the death of her father, Charles VI. Despite facing numerous challenges during her reign, including the War of Austrian Succession and the Seven Years' War, Maria Theresa proved to be a strong and capable leader who implemented significant reforms in education, the military, and the economy. Mahan's book provides a detailed account of Maria Theresa's life, including her childhood, her marriage to Francis I of Lorraine, and her relationships with her advisors and children. The book also explores the political and social context of 18th-century Europe and the impact of Maria Theresa's reign on the Habsburg dynasty and the wider world. Overall, Maria Theresa of Austria offers a comprehensive and engaging portrait of one of Europe's most influential monarchs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
