Frederick the Great Gooch Dorset Press 1990

Description

Frederick the Great, The Ruler, the Writer, the Man by G. P. Gooch

One of the greatest historians has written this biographical study of the creator of modern Germany. From a lifetime of familiarity with German history, Dr Gooch brought to bear on his complex subject a probably unparalleled store of wisdom and information. The result is a new understanding of all that Prussia and Germany have done for good and evil in the 20th century, as well as a living portrait of one of the most remarkable of founding fathers. Among many other things, this book is a concise history of eighteenth-century Germany, a mordant study of Voltaire and his influence, an essay on political science, and a tract for our times. As such, and because of Dr Gooch’s writing, it is a book that will be widely read with pleasure.
