This work is a series of studies on the central aspects of the reign of Frederick the Great, each with fresh perceptions to offer. It is a slightly abbreviated version of the German language original.

Since its publication in 1983, Theodor Schieder's study has been recognised as the most distinguished modern study of Prussia's most famous King and a leading figure of the eighteenth century. This abbreviated translation provides the first comprehensive scholarly treatment in English published since 1975.
