Rezensionen
'Tautly written and thoroughly researched, Feuchtwanger's Bismarck ... is marvellous at digesting and presenting mountains of research.' - Geoffrey Wawro, University of North Texas

'It is good to have so accessible a biography of Bismarck in one volume. Feuchtwanger takes account of much of the recent writing on the history of the period. Especially valuable is the highlighting of connections between Bismarck's domestic and foreign policies.' John Breuilly, University of Birmingham
