21. Georges Haussmann

0.     Georges Haussmann, Mémoires du Baron Haussmann (Paris: Victor Havard, 1890). vol. I, p. vii.

0.     On family background see Haussann, Ibid., vol. I, pp. 5–14 and 21. Allegations reported by Pierre Milza of dishonest actions of both Georges Haussmann’s father, Nicolas Valentin, and Georges Haussmann himself, have been unsubstantiated by bona fide documentary evidence. Then as now successful men inevitably attract the “criticism” of jealous peers.
