my secret santa hails from Germany and was kind enough to gift me a historical nonfiction book about one of his country's most brutal and ruthless leaders, Otto von Bismarck, and in his note to me (an American) he mentioned that I might find some similarities between Bismarck and our current president-elect. way cool and very kind of someone on the other side of the globe to send me a thoughtful gift such as this. many thanks kind stranger, wishing you and your loved ones nothing but the best
