Excerpt from The English Historical Review, 1887, Vol. 2: Published QuarterlyIf now we ask whether we may accept the picture of the empress drawn in the Secret History' for a true and accurate portrait, we can answer unhesitatingly an emphatic Yes. All the principal traits of this picture are certainly correct, and they are borne out not only by the corroborating testimony of other contemporaries, but also to a greater extent by its marked internal fidelity to life.32 There are portraits of which we feel at the first glance, without knowing the living originals.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
