Bristol Vienna - the new book The Making Of Books

Bristol Vienna - the new book

( words)

Historian Carl Schorske noted: "Between 1900 and 1910 Vienna was the centre of the intellectual world and didn’t even know it!" The Hotel Bristol in the heart of the city is a living testimony for this quote. Here intellectuals from all over the globe, artists, leading statesmen and the crème de la crème of the world of music met. We have recorded the story.
