WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY KATE WILLIAMS Frederick II of Prussia
attempted to escape his authoritarian father as a boy, but went on
to become one of history's greatest rulers. He loved the flute, and
devoted hours of study to the arts and French literature, forming a
long-lasting but turbulent friendship with Voltaire. He was a
military genius and enlarged the borders of his empire, but he also
promoted religious tolerance, economic reform and laid the
foundation for a united Germany. Nancy Mitford brings all these
contradictions and achievements to sparkling life in an
fascinating, intimate biography.
