I don't know a lot about Talleyrand or the French Revolution but I enjoyed this book very much. The author creates Talleyrand's character from early childhood on and gives glimpses of French culture, information about Napoleon and the politics of the time and is generally fun to read. No moral judgements about Talleyrand are made by the author. It's a short read at 224 pages.
