Moltke's Letters to His Wife and Other Relatives, Vol. 2 of 2 (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and correspondence of a pivotal figure in 19th-century military history. Through a collection of letters written to his wife and other relatives, the author provides a personal and intimate portrait of Count Helmuth von Moltke, the Prussian field marshal who played a crucial role in the unification of Germany. The letters, spanning the period from 1857 to 1858, reveal Moltke's daily life, his professional duties, and his personal reflections. Readers will gain insights into the social and political climate of Prussia in the years leading up to the Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian Wars.

He emerges as a complex and engaging figure: a man of action and intellect, a devoted husband, and a keen observer of the world around him. The correspondence provides a unique window into the mind of one of history's most celebrated military leaders, revealing both the personal and professional aspects of his remarkable life.
