January 30, 1879 issue

add to cart   close window

The article provides information on the book "Bismarck and Dr. Busch," by Moritz Busch. Few writers have ever succeeded by a single act in arousing such an immediate and violent thunderstorm of abuse as has Busch by the publication of his diary recording the after-dinner talk of Prussian Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck during the Franco-Prussian war. To understand this it is only necessary to know how frank and unsparing the Chancellor is in his criticisms of men and things, and how he never fails to impress his views on all minds by the vigorous and pointed or sarcastic way of expressing them.
