Frederick the Great and the Seven Years' War, 1756-1763 - Paperback

by Herbert J. Redman (Author)

The Seven Years' War (1756-1763), known as the French and Indian War in North America, was perhaps the first war that might be called a world war. It involved the major European countries, North and Central America, the coast of West Africa, the Philippines, and India. A major player in the war was Frederick the Great (1712-1786), the king of Prussia and a great military leader.

The first major work on the monarch and his role in the war for more than a century, this book sheds light on many aspects of military and European history.
