Friedrich II the Great (1712-1786)-“King-Soldat” and “King-Philosof”, who ruled Prussia from 1740 to 1786-left behind an extensive epistolary heritage regarding almost all sides of his life. This publication included “His Majesty King of the Prussian instruction on military arts to his generals” – a labor dedicated to the tactics and strategy of warfare and everyday army care, and the “Anti -Makiavelli” is a philosophical treatise, in which the very young king is in absentia poleming with Niccolo Machiavelli and his famous book “Prince” (“Sovereign”). One of the best biographies of Friedrich the Great, written by the famous memoirist F. A. Koni supplements the publication. Like all publications of the Great Commanders of the series, the book is equipped with extensive biographical comments and is illustrated by hundreds of black and white and color images, many of which the modern reader will get acquainted for the first time
