About this book:
On 29th August 1756, Frederick II, King of Prussia, led a pre-emptive strike across his border with the Electorate of Saxony. Frederick's justification for this action lay in the fact that he was made aware that the efforts of Austria to recover Silesia had led to the potential formation of a huge coalition of forces, opposed to Prussia.
Austria put together, politically, a huge coalition of armies of European nations. While all of these coalition participants each had their own agenda, they were united by a common desire to defeat Frederick and his allies.
This book gives details of those armies which served under the Prussian banner.
