- Abstract
The article discusses the book "Der lange Abschied von der Macht. Adel in Westfalen 1800–1970" by Horst Conrad. The book provides an introduction to the history of the nobility in Westphalia and covers topics such as lifestyle, work, education, hunting, and political views. It contains eight chapters that cover different historical periods and demonstrate the gradual loss of political, military, and economic significance of the nobility. The book is recommended as a worthwhile read for beginners in the history of the nobility, although a glossary and an index of names would have been desirable.
