Description

In 1867, Europe found itself on the threshold of major changes. The year before, Prussia, after achieving a decisive victory over the Austrian Empire, boldly stepped onto the stage of big politics—beginning to gather around itself the German states that had previously been scattered. Everyone understands that Prussia won’t stop at what it has achieved. Who will become the next victim of its growing appetite?

A clash of wills and crafty intrigues, the brilliance of diplomatic salons, the gunpowder haze of battles—glory and the fate of world history come alive under the pen of “the German Dumas,” Gregor Samarov. On the pages of his large-scale epic—following the novel “For the Scepter and the Crown,” which this book continues—you will see a broad panorama of Europe against the backdrop of the era of “iron and blood.”
