Joan Haslip Books
February 27, 1912 – June 19, 1994
Joan Haslip was an author of historical books, frequently focusing on European royalty. Her works are regarded for their accuracy and completeness, though at times they have fallen prey to "outdated interpretations". She explored European royal families, offering insights into their lives through her writing.
Consort to Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria, Elizabeth was a modern woman who fled the confines of Habsburg to roam free--she fancied dangerous riding, sailing and poetry--but her life ended with her assassination in 1896. "Haslip writes with vividness and immediacy... a serious book which is highly readable." -- Edward Crankshaw .
