Descriptionof Der Große Kurfürst. Sein Leben neu betrachtet

Friedrich Wilhelm, known as the Great Elector, laid the foundation for Prussia's rise to great power status and made the House of Hohenzollern one of the leading dynasties in Europe. This is the common assessment of the ruler from Brandenburg. It corresponded above all to his own self-image. For the historical reality was different, as Jürgen Luh, an expert on the history of Prussia, attempts to show in this biography.

He paints a picture as dazzling as it is surprising of a prince who, in truth, developed no clear political strategy, constantly changed sides and thus duped both friend and foe. And in the end, he only managed to hold on to his inherited land with a bit of luck. A fascinating look at the prehistory of Prussia and a colourful panorama of Central Europe at the beginning of the modern era.
