Title: Dreadful! Are the other reviewers reading a different book?
Review: I ordered this book as I had decide to learn how the small German states coalesced in such a relatively short period of time and thought a look at Bismark would be a good place to start. I have fallen in love with the odd entity that was the Holy Roman Empire and have a not insignifgant number of books on that subject so this would be a natural progression for me. So I had high hopes for this book. Sadly, the author of this book acts like Bismark cuckolded him and kicked his dog on the way out. The extravagent charachter assasination is over the top, certainly unnecessary and likely untrue. Reading this book is unpleasant in the extreme - I stopped reading approximately 50 pages in. Find another biography, as I am doing. If hagiography had an antonym, that word would best describe this book.
