Frederick the Great
Angebote / Angebote:
Occasionally in historical literature the profession is treated to a work which transcends the bounds of raw, everyday history to assume the dimension of a great piece of art. This volume by the late Ritter is such a work . . . "--Choice "This book is not a detailed account of a man and his times in the usual sense, but a critical examination of Frederick the Great, the institutions of absolutism, the difference between Germany's past and that of its western neighbors. Dr. Ritter chronicles Frederick's life, his foreign and domestic policies, his military doctrines, and his beliefs and ideals."--Military Affairs "Ritter's book is complex, subtle, and scholarly, and deserves to be read two or three times. . . .There is no aspect of Frederick's government or wars that Ritter does not analyze with subtlety and usually with conviction."--New York Review
