Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Der Große Preussenkönig
It is the editor's belief that nowadays, in our modern language reading, we use too many stories and too little historical and other prose. This is doubtless due in part to the fact that historical prose is usually difficult. When, therefore, this short life of that truly remarkable man, Frederick the Great, written in very simple Ger man, came into the editor's hands two years ago in Germany, he decided to edit it.
