ONE MORNING IN SARAJEVO: 28 JUNE 1914
Book ID/图书代码： 10010006B01370
English Summary/英文概要： This historical account of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand is every bit as gripping as The Day of the Jackal. Using newly available sources and older material, David James Smith brilliantly reinvestigates and reconstructs the events which subsequently determined the shape of the twentieth century.
Young Gavrilo Princip arrived at the Vlajnic pastry shop in Sarajevo in Bosnia-Herzegovina on the morning of 28 June 1914. He was greeted by his fellow conspirators in the plot to kill Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The Archduke, next in the Habsburg line to succeed his elderly uncle, Franz Joseph, as Emperor of Austria, was beginning a state visit to Sarajevo later that morning with his wife Sophie. Ferdinand was not a very popular character, not even in Austria, not even at his own court where he was widely thought of as bad-tempered and arrogant and perhaps even deranged. To the young students he embodied everything they loathed about imperial oppression. They planned to kill him at about 11 o’clock as he paraded down Appel Quay to the town hall in his open top car.
Weighed down by its historical burden, buried under mounds of analysis and portentous commentary, the story of the assassins and the assassination has been lost. David James Smith creates a narrative that takes place in one day, interweaved with the build-up to the assassination, focusing for the first time on the fine detail of the plot and the characters of those involved.
What happened in those few hours - leading as it did to the First and Second World Wars - is as compelling as any thriller.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 弗朗茨·斐迪南大公的遇刺实录的吸引程度绝对丝毫不亚于电影《豺狼之日》。利用老的资料，再加上新的资源，大卫·詹姆斯·史密斯对这些影响二十世纪的重大时间重新进行了调查，巧妙地加工重组在了一起。
1914年6月28日早上，年轻的普林西普走进了一家波黑萨拉热窝的面包店。同伴走向他，跟她问好。在这里，他们将共同完成暗杀斐迪南大公的任务。斐迪南大公作为奥匈帝国的王位继承人，将与次日早晨连同妻子索菲亚对萨拉热窝进行正式访问。斐迪南大公并不受拥戴，即使在本国也是如此。甚至在他自己的议会成员当中，他也是公认的脾气暴躁、傲慢无礼，甚至被认为是疯狂。在年轻学生眼里，他代表着所有令人厌恶的帝国压迫。这些年轻学生计划在11点，即在他坐在敞篷车里从码头走向市政厅的时候，刺杀他。
由于过多的历史研究和分析评论，暗杀者和这场暗杀本身的故事已经被忽略。
大卫·詹姆斯·史密斯采用叙述手法讲述当日发生的故事，交织着该次暗杀行动的铺垫，并首次以密谋的细节和涉及的人物为重心展开故事。
这短短数小时的事情，最终却导致了两场世界大战，其中的故事真的同惊悚小说一样吸引人的眼球...
