Genseric: King of the Vandals and First Prussian Kaiser (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Genseric: King of the Vandals and First Prussian Kaiser

The play ran for two days - just long enough for news of its character to reach Potsdam and secure the attention of the Kaiser. Then came an order that it be at once suppressed.

The simple German rubbed his eyes and scratched his ears! The millions who had not seen it now rushed to buy a Copy; and, of course I did the same - happening to be just then in Bavaria. NO reason had been given for the summary act of censorship and the more the people read, the less did they understand.

Excerpt from Genseric: King of the Vandals and First Prussian Kaiser

"... It is now more than a quarter of a century since I had the privilege of meeting you on the shores of the Baltic - the Vandal habitat. Each of your books I have read - many of them three times - one or two so often as to have lost count. In your pages I have found not merely the rhetorical graces that charm the intellect, but also a spiritual appreciation of Prussian character that no historian can afford to ignore; for nowhere else will be found the truth presented more fearlessly or with finer critical sense."
