The British military historian and professor at Oxford University devoted his work to the military conflict between the empire of Napoleon III and the German states led by Prussia. The war, instigated by Prussian Chancellor O. Bismarck and formally initiated by Napoleon III, ended with the defeat and collapse of France, as a result of which Prussia managed to transform the North German Union into a unified German Empire. While working on the book, the author researched and engaged a tremendous amount of scholarly and documentary material and offered his perspective on the causes and consequences of this war. Howard analyzed the state of the enemy forces, including structure, armament and equipment, gave a vivid description of the battles and presented a gallery of portraits of key figures of the events, including Wilhelm I, Bismarck, Leopold Hohenzollern, Benedetti and others. In conclusion, the scholar notes that Germany's great victory later turned out to be a disaster for both Germany and the rest of the world.
