War letters from the years 1870/71 from General of the Infantry Kretschman.

From the content:
General Kretschman's very lively and detailed description of the events in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71. He does not write the heroic battle descriptions that were common at the time, but rather conveys the true reality of the war. Particularly noteworthy is his true expression of feelings about other German generals, such as the German General von Steinmetz, who bore his contempt.
