Description
Well, this book describes the evolution of the General Staff of the Prussian Army for first. Later, how all the German Army reproduce this kind of military organization when the Reich was formed by Bismarck. Shows how this institution influenced the political history of Germany too and the all Europe: it's military perspective to view the political problems can explain conflicts as the Franco-german War or the First and Second World Wars; can explain the frequency of the military coup d'etat by the german army as a mean to secure the power of the Kaiser, or the social evolution from the medieval Prussia to a industrialized state. It is a very good book.
