An Interesting Read

Lord Castlereagh died under tragic circumstances. Hyde does a fairly good job of digging into last few weeks of his life, his friends' attempts to help him, and the relationships he had with them. If you're interested in the Regency era, Castlereagh and his circle were pivotal players in much of what happened and his death had a large impact on what came after. There's also a thorough description of the funeral, which was quite informative.
