| 520 | _a"Der Soldatenhandel deutscher Fürsten nach Amerika" by Friedrich Kapp is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work explores the controversial recruitment practices of German princes who sold their soldiers as mercenaries to foreign powers, particularly during the 18th century. Kapp addresses themes of national disgrace and the implications of such practices on the identity and honor of the German people. The opening of the text establishes the author’s intention to shed light on a dark chapter of German history, detailing the morally questionable trade of soldiers by German princes for financial gain. Kapp shares a personal reflection on the state of Germany a decade prior, when the soldier trade was viewed as a national shame, and contrasts it with the contemporary political climate. He foreshadows a thorough examination of the historical context of mercenary warfare in Germany, beginning with the evolution of soldier recruitment practices and the socio-political conditions that permitted such trades, setting the stage for deeper exploration of specific examples in subsequent chapters.
