description: "Friedrich Adam Julius von Bernhardi was a Prussian general and military historian. He was a best-selling author prior to World War I. A militarist, he is perhaps best known for his bellicose book Deutschland und der Nächste Krieg, printed in 1911. Describing war as a \"divine business\", he proposed that Germany should pursue an aggressive stance and ignore treaties."
