Note 18 — Chapter VIII · Frederick’s Defeat at Hochkirch
George P. (George Putnam) Upton translation
Princess Friederike Sophie Wilhelmina was the favorite sister of Frederick the Great. She was born in 1709, married the Margrave of Baireuth in 1731, and died in 1758. She wrote her memoirs, but they were not published until 1810. Like her brother, she was the frequent victim of her father’s cruelty.
