"Frederick the Great and the Seven Years' War" by Ferdinand Schrader is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the life of Frederick the Great during a pivotal period of his reign—the Seven Years' War—which significantly impacted both Prussia and Austria’s place in European politics. It highlights the military strategies employed by Frederick, his battles, and the sociopolitical context of the time. The beginning of the account sets the stage for the Seven Years' War, describing the aftermath of conflict that had left Germany in a state of ruin. It introduces Frederick as a formidable leader who must confront a coalition of enemies including Austria and its allies—Russia, France, and others—intent on regaining Silesia, which Frederick had previously seized. General plans for invasion are detailed, along with Frederick's quick actions to bolster his defenses. This opening portion paints a portrait of a determined king facing overwhelming odds, establishing the intense backdrop against which the ensuing battles will unfold.
