About the booklet: Over a century ago, the world received the sudden news of the death of the last Emperor and King of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Forced to live the final chapter of his life in exile on the distant island of Madeira, far from his homeland and peoples, his passing sent waves of profound shock and sadness around the world. However, few in his beloved empire knew the full story of the conditions and circumstances that marked the final moments of this saintly ruler.
As a devout Catholic, grounded in devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Emperor Karl overcame the trials and tribulations of life with the greatest joy and bitterest of sorrow.
Yet, he was never more noble than in his final moments, when he embraced a peaceful Christian death, living out the words, "The death of a just man is precious in the eyes of the Lord."
Blessed Karl Of Austria: Death Of An Emperor tells the story of Karl's last days and moments, offering profound insight into a life completely devoted to God, family, country, and peace.
