Gordon A. Craig is J.E. Wallace Sterling Professor of Humanities, Emeritus, at Stanford University. He is the author of numerous books including The Politics of the Prussian Army, 1640-1945 (1955), and Force and Statecraft
"In ten chapters, each about a different man, Craig presents deft
characterizations of German writers who sought to engage themselves
politically and penetrating and provocative depictions of writers
who abhorred politics as not being suited to the German writer's
temperament....An interesting discussion of literary responses to
political situations from the Age of Napoleon to the Age of
Bismarck."--CHOICE
"This collection of essays is a pleasure to read but will perplex
many of its readers. The essays themselves are vintage Craig:
graceful and wide ranging."--American Historical Review
