"Politics is the art of the possible," Otto Von Bismarck famously
said, and here, in his own words, the art of politics is laid bare
by one of the most prominent and influential European statesmen of
the nineteenth century. These are the intimate reflections and
reminiscences of the man who unified the independent Germanic
states into one nation, and whose subsequent promotion of the new
country's colonial ambitions earned him the title of the founder of
the German empire. This second volume of what must be considered an
essential historical document details the beginnings of Bismarck's
attempts to consolidate the German states and his confrontations
with the military through the political intrigues of the young
nation and Bismarck's contentious relationship with the crown after
unification. It is vital reading for any informed, in-depth
understanding of modern European history. AUTHOR BIO: OTTO EDUARD
LEOPOLD VON BISMARCK (1815-1898) was born into a family that had
belonged to the nobility from the fourteenth century. He studied
law at the Universities of Gottingen and Berlin, and later served
as prime minister of Prussia, from 1862 to 1873, and as Germany's
first chancellor, from 1871 to 1890.
