Alexandru Marghiloman was, without a doubt, one of the political personalities who marked the political and social life of Romania from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. The present study aims to reveal to the readers the image of the young and ambitious politician, when he was in full ascension of his political career, which will culminate with the appointment, by King Ferdinand I, as prime minister on March 5, 1918. Alexandru Marghiloman was a strong character, educated at the French school, with a brilliant speech and also a remarkable figure in the socio-cultural life of Romania, a true „wallah lord” as Nicolae Peneș called him in his book.
