Summary If you read only one biography of a historical figure this year, this panoramic biography by Pulitzer Prize winning author Robert K. Massie (Peter the Great) would make a fine choice. In this arresting narrative, Catherine the Great of Russia (1729-1796) emerges as a self-made monarch who worked hard to be a benevolent ruler, but whose 34-year reign was rocked by foreign wars and domestic upheavals.
