“If there are any other diarists who managed to preserve as much fairness and coolness as Princess Blücher displays in this book they need not be ashamed to publish their records. If she had a just mind she had a stalwart one.”—Spectator.
“This is a book apart. Nothing yet published gives so clear and honest a picture of German mentality. The soul of Germany is laid bare and the exposure achieved without the slightest pretension. The character of the Berlin aristocracy is written in every page of this honest and absorbing document.”—Daily Telegraph.
“Perhaps the most absorbingly interesting war book that has been written.... Altogether the book is a most remarkable one. The kind that causes one to forget one’s meals and other pleasures until the last page is read. Princess Blücher has earned the undying gratitude of her countrymen for her indefatigable work on behalf of prisoners of war.”—Globe.
