At six feet seven inches tall, Tsar Peter the Great towered Russian history with appetite, ambition, and cruelty, to match his legendary stature. Now journey into the wartime chaos, political intrigue, and social upheaval of 17th century Russia as Peter bursts onto the scene to single-handedly wrench his benighted nation from medieval darkness and guide it into the brilliant light of the modern, Western age.
Told through lavishly produced historical recreations and penetrating analysis, Wrath of the Tsar: Peter the Great is an extraordinary panorama of a larger-than-life, intellectually insatiable ruler obsessed with all that was new, and brutally ruthless with anyone who threatened his revolutionary vision of Russia as a great world power.
