Das Mayerling-Netz

Crown Prince Rudolf and Mayerling - over the last hundred years, numerous authors have expressed themselves more or less seriously on this subject in their publications. The layman is justified in asking whether there is any detail that has been overlooked or ignored. It is therefore surprising what the Baden historian Dr. Rudolf R. Novak has found out in his brand new book. For example, he pursues the question of why the crown prince chose the small town of Mayerling in the Vienna Woods as his hunting lodge, how the fateful concatenation of people and circumstances came about, which finally culminated in the terrible deed at the hunting lodge, why unbelievable rumours and speculations about Rudolf's death started from the nearby town of Baden, and who the protagonists of this "Mayerlingfama" were. In meticulous research work.
