Produktinformationen zu „The Life and Adventures of Baron Trenck (Vol. 1&2) (ePub)“
The Life and Adventures of Baron Trenck unfolds the gripping autobiography of Friedrich von der Trenck, a prominent Prussian officer, and adventurer. Born in 1726, Trenck's life takes a tumultuous turn during the Silesian Wars, marked by imprisonment, daring escapes, and accusations of espionage. Serving Frederick the Great, he becomes a Rittmeister in Hungary, traverses Russia, and entangles himself in a clandestine love affair. Captured multiple times, Trenck's resilience prevails, leading to his release through the intervention of Empress Maria Theresa. A man of diverse pursuits, he engages in literature, wine trading, and international travels. Against the backdrop of a turbulent Europe, Trenck's narrative offers a fascinating glimpse into the 18th-century aristocracy. His memoir gained popularity, becoming a compelling read. His personal life, marked by a marriage that produced fourteen children, adds layers to the tale. As an observer during the French Revolution, Trenck's fate takes a tragic turn, accused of espionage and meeting the guillotine's blade just days before Robespierre's fall. Immerse yourself in the life and adventures of Baron Trenck, a figure whose story intertwines with the tumultuous epochs of European history.
