Екатерина II — одна из самых ярких фигур эпохи Просвещения. Маленькая принцесса Фике стала самой русской из немецких правителей России и последней самодержавной императрицей в ее истории. Правлением Екатерины завершился блестящий "осьмнадцатый век" – век кровавых бунтов, военных и дипломатических побед, век разгула крепостничества и Салтычихи. Истинная дочь своего времени, Екатерина соткана из противоречий: республиканка в душе и сторонница крепостного права на деле, поборница морали, прозванная северной Кибелой. Она дружила с Вольтером и Дидро, но отправила в тюрьму просветителя Новикова.

Definitive and engrossing, The Last Tsar uncovers how Nicholas II stumbled into revolution, taking his family, the Romanov dynasty, and the whole Russian Empire down with him.
