Frederick the Great discussion post 11

In our last installment, our heroes found that Henri de Catt's memoirs, a major source for current biographers of Frederick the Great, are not to be trusted!!

I agree, die einzige Mildred :D

As to why AW made a copy for himself, and had a look at the material in the first place - welll, he'd just been told in no uncertain terms, repeatedly, that what he'd done was unforgivable and he wasn't worthy to be entrusted with military command ever again.

Wow, this is really interesting. And kind of heartbreaking :(

I hope it brought him some comfort. I've always thought that making Fritz (almost) watch was torture for Fritz, but surely comforting for Katte.

I also agree :(
