Summary "History of Frederick the Second, Called Frederick the Great" by John S. C. Abbott is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the life and reign of Frederick the Great, providing insights into his character, policies, and the era in which he lived. It is likely to cover various themes, including his complex relationships with his family, particularly his father, and his military strategies that shaped Prussia's future. The opening of the narrative sets the stage by discussing the origins of the Prussian monarchy and the early life of Frederick the Great, whose real name was Frederick Charles. It traces the lineage of Frederick William, Frederick the Great's father, and illustrates the harsh and demanding upbringing that shaped his character. The writing emphasizes the conflict between the father's sternness and Frederick's more artistic and sensitive nature, foreshadowing the struggles that will define Frederick's reign. Abbott's portrayal of the early royal family also hints at the tragic and often brutal atmosphere of the court that would greatly influence Frederick's development.
