Russia's eighteenth-century drive toward modernity and empire under
the two "greats" -- Peter I and Catherine II -- is fully captured
in this new work by one of Russia's outstanding young historians.
The author develops three themes: Russia's relationship to the
West; the transformation of "Holy Russia" into a multinational
empire; and the effects of efforts to modernize Russia selectively
along Western lines. Writing in a clear, crisp style, Kamenskii
enlivens the narrative with observations from contemporary literary
figures and political commentators that point up the lasting
significance of the events he describes.
