Item description from seller

Print on Demand. In this historical biography, the author offers a panoramic view of Peter the Great, the first Russian emperor and a colossal figure who looms over his nation's history. The book situates Peter's life and reign within the evolution of Russian power, revealing a fascinating tension between European enlightenment and Russia's historical legacy of Byzantine tradition. The author traces Peter's life from youth to death, capturing the brutal realities of his early years under the regency of his ambitious half-sister Sophia and the profound influence of his travels in Europe. Through vivid prose and exhaustive research, this book not only paints a portrait of an absolutist monarch who dragged his nation into modernity but illuminates a pivotal chapter in Russian and European history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
