Omschrijving

Wallenstein, Soldier Under Saturn: A Biography is a comprehensive account of the life and career of Albrecht von Wallenstein, a legendary military commander and statesman who played a pivotal role in the Thirty Years' War. Written by acclaimed historian Francis Watson, the book delves into Wallenstein's early life, his rise to power, and his eventual downfall at the hands of Emperor Ferdinand II. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources, including contemporary letters, diaries, and official documents, Watson provides a vivid portrait of Wallenstein as a complex and enigmatic figure, driven by ambition and a thirst for power. The book also explores the political and social context of the Thirty Years' War, shedding light on the complex web of alliances, rivalries, and conflicts that shaped Europe in the 17th century. With its meticulous research, engaging prose, and insightful analysis, Wallenstein, Soldier Under Saturn is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of warfare, politics, and diplomacy in early modern Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
