The third part of the book focuses on the most significant period of the war, including the Battle of Breitenfeld and the Siege of Magdeburg.

Schiller's detailed and engaging account of this pivotal moment in European history provides a fascinating insight into a period of great change and upheaval.In Germany, the schisms in the church produced also a lasting political schism, which made that country for more than a century the theatre of confusion, but at the same time threw up a firm barrier against political oppression. It was, too, the Reformation principally that first drew the northern powers, Denmark and Sweden, into the political system of Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
