Alexander II the Liberator. From Serfdom to Revolutionary Russia
29.99 €
Emperor Alexander II abolished serfdom, brought freedom to Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro, and Romania with hard-won victories over Turkey. He successfully ended the long Caucasian War, pacified the rebellious Poland, and annexed Central Asia, the Amur Region, and Primorye to Russia. But his reign was also marked by liberal "perestroika" under the slogans of "Glasnost, orality, civic spirit." Alaska was sold, the Kuril Islands were surrendered, the foundations of Orthodoxy and autocracy were shaken, revolutionaries and terrorists gained strength, and the emperor himself fell in a brutal war with them. Moreover, both liberals and revolutionaries were fueled and directed by the West. This complex and ambiguous era in Russian history is described in a new book by the famous writer and historian Valery Shambarov, "Alexander II the Liberator. From Serfdom to Revolutionary Russia."
