Knowing a person's history really helps to understand why they acted as they did - not to condone always - but at least understand a bit better. What a life Peter had!

Absolutely amazing to read what the Russian people have been through. It is true that fact is often stranger than fiction.

It seems that in war it sometimes becomes more about personalities than right and wrong...

History is fascinating but scary if we repeat it...

Interesting to read a biography and begin to thoroughly dislike the man being portrayed.

Interesting to learn about how the various world leaders of the time interacted with each other. Some with honor - some not so much.

Reading history - especially biographies like this help - to put current events in proper context.

OK so this Russian czar is going on a mission to learn about the western world incognito? At nearly seven feet? I sympathize with his desire to be allowed to learn without all the ceremony - but this is the same guy who exiles people for merely talking badly about him. What a strange race of beings we humans are.

The Great Embassy to Western Europe - what a great idea! On this one I think Peter had the right idea! But being 6 ft 7 in I doubt he remained incognito for long.
