The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1965. Hardcover. 9024701856 . Light wear; Dust Jacket light wear. Solid hardcover.; "Part one of this work constitutes a monograph on Nicolay consisting of three chapters. The first deals with his education and contact with prominent men in Western Europe. The next two chapters discuss Nicolay's Russian period and his retirement respectively. Part two is devoted to Nicolay's unpublished "Erinnerungen" which are the best evidence of his contact with the "beaux esprits" of his time, since they are not a chronological presentation of his life but rather individual character sketches of famous men based on his own unbiased observation." ; International Archives of the History of Ideas / Archives internationales d'histoire des idées; Vol. 9; 220 pages .
