Peter der Große: Sein Leben und seine Zeit

Massie's detailed portrayal makes me wonder what sparked his fascination with Peter's efforts to modernize Russia. Did he find certain reforms more impactful than others?

His leadership style was both inspiring and brutal, which made me question whether his reforms justified his methods. How did others interpret his use of power?

The narrative balances political intrigue and personal details beautifully. I wonder what criteria he used to determine which moments shaped Peter’s legacy the most.
