About the Author:
From Publishers Weekly:
Robert Asprey is a military historian whose articles and books are internationally respected. Born in 1923 he served as an officer in the Marines in World War II and in the Korean War. A Fulbright scholar, he studied at both Oxford University and the University of Vienna. His works include the best-selling War in the Shadows—The Guerrilla in History.
"This major biography of Frederick (1712-86) is as full an account of the Prussian ruler's exploits in war and peace as is likely to be written," asserted PW , "Asprey fashions the disparate sides of this soldier-intellectual into a lucid narrative of his leadership." Photos.
