by James Cracraft (Author)
Offers a fresh interpretation of the pivotal era of the Russian tsar Peter the Great. This book links together and transcends Peter's many reforms of state and society, arguing that it was nothing less than a cultural revolution. It discusses the shaping events of the tsar's youth, his inner circle, the resistance his reforms engendered, and more.
