Book Overview
In 1770, Count Johann Friedrich Struensee became the de facto ruler of Denmark, after convincing the young King Christian VII to grant him unprecedented power. However, his reforms and liberal policies proved too controversial, and he was ultimately overthrown and executed. This narrative, written by his chaplain Balthasar M?nter, provides a vivid and moving account of Struensee's final days, including his conversion to Christianity and his final moments on the scaffold.
