Summary
A colossal biography of a 6'7'' tyrant who, like a Caesar or a Nero, killed and tortured his own relatives yet turned his nation into a cultural and military superpower.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A barbarous, volatile feudal tsar with a taste for torture; a progressive and enlightened reformer of government and science; a statesman of vision and colossal significance: Peter the Great embodied the greatest strengths and weaknesses of Russia while being at the very forefront of her development. Robert K Massie's award-winning study remains the essential portrait of the man and his era.
