CHAPTER 10. ETRURIA
Bibliographical Note. There is no monograph in English devoted to the Kingdom of Etruria. Interested readers will need to burrow both into works dealing with Italy as a whole, such as C. Duggan, The Force of Destiny: A History of Italy since 1796 (London, 2008) or into accounts of Napoleon’s Italian campaigns. There is one standard item in Italian, Giovanni Drei, Il Regno d’Etruria (Modena, 1935), and two recent studies: Romano Coppini, Il gran-ducato di Toscana dagli ‘anni francesi’ all’Unità (Torino, 1993), and Edgardo Donati, La Toscana nell’impero napoleonico (Florence, 2008).

CHAPTER 11. ROSENAU
Bibliographical Note. There is no single monograph in English which covers the whole of this chapter’s subject. The ancestry and life of Albert, the prince consort, have generated a huge literature. Leading biographies include Theodore Martin, The Life of HRH the Prince Consort, 5 vols. (London, 1875–80); Daphne Bennett, King without a Crown (London, 1977); David Duff, Albert and Victoria (London, 1977); Robert Rhodes James, Albert, Prince Consort (London, 1983); and Stanley Weintraub, Albert: Uncrowned King (London, 1998). The history of the British royal family after Albert’s death has also attracted much attention. Relevant works include Sidney Lee, Queen Victoria: A Biography (London, 1902); John Van der Kiste and Bee Jordaan, Dearest Affie: Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh (Stroud, 1984); Lance Salway, Queen Victoria’s Grandchildren (London, 1991), and E. J. Feuchtwanger, Albert and Victoria: The Rise and Fall of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha (London, 2006). Interest in the royal family’s German duchy, however, falls off sharply during the First World War. There is no account of the duchy’s final years, and no biography of the last duke. Studies of the politics and administration history of the duchy are only available in German.
