Overview

 

Summary

Johann Wilhelm Archenholz was born in Langfuhr near Danzig on September 3, 1741. He was a Prussian officer, Professor of History and a publicist. His book about the history of the Seven Years of Silesian War (1756–63) was the basis for many reprints, as well as for school books. Archenholz commissioned a Berlin artist, Johann Friedrich Bolt, to produce a copper etching for Archenholz's History of Gustav Vasa of the famous Swedish Nobility. More information...
