This year is the 160th since the Battle of Königgrätz.
Just in time, Gábor Orbán’s comprehensive book on the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 will be released soon in English.
I enjoyed translating this from the original German and I hope my English version does justice to Gábor’s excellent work.
If you are a Civil War buff, but maybe feeling a little burnt out or overwhelmed by the sheer mass of material on the topic, I encourage you to take a look at the Austro-Prussian War. It’s just a year after the Civil War ended, and has a lot of things in common, but there’s also a lot of differences.
