Emperor Nicholas I. Biography. Rolls L.V.

Emperor Nicholas I is one of the most controversial in the assessments of researchers of the Russian ruler. Some people think that he was a raging statesman who had put things in order in the country with a firm hand, the reactionary, whose politics led to defeat in the Crimean war.

In the monograph, Nicholas I is shown not only as a sovereign, but also as a person with his strengths and weaknesses. The book is a detailed description of the life of Emperor Nicholas and his family.
