Re: Maria von Katte, maybe reading her father‘s autobiography will reveal something to me that could provide a good in!
Ooh, true! Yes, read it with an eye toward becoming her BFF. What could go wrong?
Or perhaps we should assign someone to seduce her assistant, Zimmermann!Fritz-style. That will work!
Somehow, none of these cunning plans ever comes to completion...
I take hope from the fact that Fritz won the Seven Years' War through sheer persistence, if not through cunning. I too can be persistent. Proposed marriage to my wife once a year for seven years before she accepted! Maria von Katte, watch out. :P
(We just want a copy of a manuscript! Is that too much to ask? Pleeeeaase???)
