POTEMKIN(ISBN=9781400077175) epub 下载 pdf 网盘 2025 mobi 在线 免费

As a young guardsman, Grigory Potemkin caught the eye of

Catherine the Great with a theatrical act of gallantry during the

coup that placed her on the throne. Over the next thirty years he

would become her lover, co-ruler, and husband in a secret marriage

that left room for both to satisfy their sexual appetites. Potemkin

proved to be one of the most brilliant statesmen of the eighteenth

century, helping Catherine expand the Russian empire and deftly

manipulating allies and adversaries from Constantinople to

London.

This acclaimed biography

vividly re-creates Potemkin’s outsized character and

accomplishments and restores him to his rightful place as a

colossus of the eighteenth century. It chronicles the tempestuous

relationship between Potemkin and Catherine, a remarkable love

affair between two strong personalities that helped shape the

course of history. As he brings these characters to life,

Montefiore also tells the story of the creation of the Russian

empire. This is biography as it is meant to be: both intimate and

panoramic, and bursting with life.
