This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(Frederick the Greats struggles during the Seven Years Wa...)
Frederick the Greats struggles during the Seven Years War The Seven Years War, 1754-62, shaped the modern world. It was a truly global conflict fought in India, America and Europe, as Britain struggled for dominance in trade, colonisation and culture with its principal rival, Bourbon France. European nations formed alliances dependent on need, sentiment or necessity in their relationships with the great powers. The German states of varying sizes and influence were subject to dominant neighbours, and Prussia despite her relatively large size remained surrounded by substantially more powerful and hostile states including Russia, Sweden, Austria and France. Prussias monarch, Frederick, earned his epithet the Great as much for his tenacity and ability to avert national defeat as for his skill as a strategist and battlefield tactician. This book, written by one of Fredericks own officers combines first hand, eyewitness experience with an historical narrative of Prussias struggle to assert itself as a major power in Europe. Detail of campaigns, battles and anecdotes of major and minor characters from the perspective of a Prussian military man combine to deliver a rewarding book for modern readers. This edition offers an unparalleled and immediate account of these momentous times as Frederick fought for survival and, by example, laid the foundations for a unified Germany. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.

Johann Wilhelm Archenholz was born at Langfuhr, a suburb of Danzig, on the 3rd of September 1743.
He graduated the Berlin Cadet school.
After cadet school he passed into the Prussian army at the age of sixteen, and took part in the last campaigns of the Seven Years' War.
Retiring from military service, on account of his wounds, with the rank of captain in 1763, he travelled for sixteen years and visited nearly all the countries of Europe, and resided in England for ten years (1769 - 1779).
Returning to Germany in 1780, he obtained a lay canonry at the cathedral of Magdeburg, and immediately entered upon a literary career by publishing the periodical Litteratur- und Volkerkunde (Leipzig, 1782 - 1791).
This was followed in 1785 by England und Italien (2nd ed. , Leipzig, 1787), in which he gives a remarkably unprejudiced appreciation of English political and social institutions. Between 1789 and 1798 he published his Annalen der brilischen Geschichte (20 vols).
But the work by which he is best known to fame is his brilliantly written history of the Seven Years' War, Geschichte des siebenjdhrigen Krieges (first published in the Berliner historisches Taschenbuch of 1787, and later in 2 vols. , Berlin, 1793; 13th ed. , Leipzig, 1892). This work, though as regards the main facts and details it only follows other writers, is still a useful source of information upon the epoch with which it deals.
In 1792 Archenholz removed to Hamburg, and there, from 1792 to 1812, edited the journal Minerva, which had a great reputation for its literary, historical and political information.
Archenholz died at his country seat, Oyendorf, near Hamburg, on the 28th of February 1812.

His main interest was current politics in Europe as well as their historical development.
While at first he agreed with the ideas of the revolution, his view was changed by the ongoing violence. In 1792 he had to flee the country as he was threatened to be beheaded following some of his political papers.
In the middle of the 1760s he was a member of the Freimaurer und Logenbruder, among Johann Christoph Bode and Friedrich Ludwig Schröder .
In the summer of 1786 Archenholz married Sophie Friederike von Roksch. They had four children: Agathon, Auguste Sophie, Charlotte Adrienne and Wilhelm Anarchis.
