The title of this book says it best?for indeed it is a collection of some historical events that may be of interest to readers, since it features some famous figures in history engaging in activities that may seem strange to a modern readers' eyes (or perhaps even to the readers at the time this book was published). Some of these accounts are that of Voltaire and Stanislaw I, an odd painting of Van Dyck's in Windsor Castle, and a collection of stories about Prince Albert, prince consort to Queen Victoria, from his university days.
