Author Description

Excerpt from Frederick Crown Prince and Emperor: A Biographical Sketch Dedicated to His Memory The following brief sketch contains nothing controversial, nothing which could lead to dis pute or discussion, and it has been especially attempted to eliminate, as far as possible, all matter of a political nature, and confine it to the record of such facts as illustrate the character of a simple and noble life, in a manner which may be acceptable to that Wider circle of readers for whom, in accordance with the desire expressed in the introduction, it is designed. It is incomplete, inasmuch as it contains the story of one life, which is so intimately bound up with another, that the picture could only be completed by a full account of the lives of both. But it is believed that the intention of one, in obedience to whose wishes it was undertaken, has been thus best.
