The Holstein Papers : The Memoirs, Diaries and Correspondence of Friedrich von Holstein 1837-1909 Paperback / softback
by Friedrich von Holstein
Part of the The Holstein Papers 4 Volume Paperback Set series
Paperback / softback
Description
Friedrich von Holstein (1837–1909) was Bismarck's subordinate at the German Foreign Office.
Since his death historians have combined to make him a monster of sinister and self-seeking policy.
At various times von Holstein kept diaries, began memoirs, and wrote and received letters, and many of these survive.
A selection of this Nachlass, which was first published in volume form between 1955 and 1963, is presented here.
The original effect of this publication prompted an entire re-judgement of Bismarck, German foreign policy, and of Holstein himself.
Volume 4 completes the correspondence from and to Holstein.
Together, volumes 3 and 4 contain the real core of the papers and are an unusually rich source of primary material on German foreign policy of the period.
Volume 4 covers Holstein's correspondence between 1897 and 1909.
