This is the third of four books about the adventures of Giulio Mazarini. It covers the period from approximately 1627 to 1639, the most productive time in Mazarini's career. He tries hard to achieve one important goal: to restore peace in Western Europe. The peace was violated by Spain and Savoy which attacked the small marquesate of Montferrat in northern Italy. Mazarini manipulates the Spanish commander into inaction. By doing so, Mazarini happens to fulfill the agenda of Richelieu thus defending the interests of France. Richelieu appreciates his efforts. After a short period of happiness when Mazarini falls in love with a woman he saved from death, his fortunes take a turn for the worse. The young diplomat loses the favor of the Pope, who does not approve of Mazarini's leanings toward Richelieu's policies. As a result Mazarini has to flee Italy and goes to France.

The book is a fictional description of the life of Giulio Mazarini (Jules Mazarin as he is known in France and the English-speaking world), an Italian who lived in the 17th Century and had an amazing fate. He began his career as servant-companion of a young Italian noble and ended it as a ruler of France. This book is the first in a series consisting of four volumes: In the service of Constable Colonna, His Holiness' diplomat, Richelieu's admirer, and Ruler of France. The book is for anyone who likes adventure in a historical setting, from young adults to a mature audience. Readers may be attracted by the struggle of characters, possible rationale of famous historical personalities' actions, description of seventeenth century Europe, diplomatic battles not dissimilar to our present day clashes, the tenacity, optimism, and knowledge of human nature of the protagonist who rises to the very top against all odds. Apparently no fiction books totally devoted to Mazarini's life and adventures exist. As a character Mazarini appears in Alexander Dumas' "Twenty Years Later" where he is not the main personage and is mostly treated with sarcasm (a tribute to the common prejudice of that time).

It seems inevitable that Mazarin will always suffer by comparison with Richelieu. The latter, who has been described as the greatest political genius which France has ever produced, appeals to the imagination by the firmness and the success of his policy. The ability with which he managed the foreign affairs of France, and his creation of an administrative system which continued to the Kevolution, place Richelieu in the foremost rank of French statesmen. And yet his successor, though less illustrious, equally deserves to stand among those who have contributed most to the greatness of France. What MM. Hanotaux and d'Avenel have done for Richelieu's memory has been done for Mazarin by M. Ch�ruel. Hehas made it impossible for us to regard Mazarin as a mere Italian adventurer, or to agree with Michelet that " he was an unprincipled actor, libertine, and gambler, who subordinated every question of State policy to the meanest regard for his personal interests ; a miser whose glaring avarice was without a single redeeming quality." It must be remembered that Richelieu advised the choice of Mazarin as his successor, that during the last year of Richelieu's life Mazarin shared that statesman's secrets, and that on the latter's death Mazarin was at once admitted to the Council of State. In M. Ch�ruel's opinion, and in that of all competent historians, Richelieu's choice was fully justified. Unlike Richelieu, Mazarin had an Italian's love of intrigue and diplomacy and, was always confident of his ability to bend his opponetns to his will. The history of Mazarin from 1643 to 1661 is not only the history of France, but also the history of Europe. The difficulty, therefore, of writing an adequate biography of him is at once apparent. M. Ch�ruel's two great works which deal with the period comprise no less than seven volumes, which contain ample materials for forming an estimate of Mazarin's character and work. In that historian's opinion Mazarin was an indefatigable and patriotic minister whose fame principally rests upon his success in making France illustrious by her victories and diplomatic triumphs, and in leaving her on his death the leading power in Europe.

Excerpt from Mazarin As a foreign politician and diplomatist Mazarin has had few equals among French statesmen, and he deserve full credit for his great diplomatic triumphs. The Peace of Westphalia, the League of the 'rhine, the English Alliance, the Peace of the Pyrenees, and the Treaty of Oliva form a brilliant list of successes unequalled in the life of any French minister. So fully engrossed was he in the complicated struggle with the Emperor and Spain, that be neglected the internal affairs of France and underrated the strength of the Opposition headed by the parlement of Paris. He paid dearly for that mis calculation, though it is questionable if, under the existing circumstances, success abroad was at that time compatible or possible with administrative reforms at home and a policy of severity towards the nobles. Be that as it may, no sooner had the storm in Paris broken out than Mazarin addressed himself with vigour to the task of V repressing internal disorder. After a long and weary period, from 1648 to 1653, he succeeded, and the monarchy was once more supreme in France. The last eight years of his life were then devoted to recovering for France that position in Europe which during the Fronde troubles she had temporarily lost. In 1661 he died, having completed Richelieu's internal policy, and leaving that statesman's administrative system in full working order. The destruction of the Hapsburg schemes had also been effected, and on his death Mazarin left France in a stronger position then she had enjoyed.
