Paperback. Zustand: Good. As Catherine the Great rides triumphantly into Petersburg to seize the Russian throne, she is brimming with ideas. Yet in these early years of her reign, she must confront a corrupt and inept government, a disastrous economy, attempted coups, conflicts with the church, mysterious murders, court intrigues, a sick heir, an epidemic, war, and resistance to her reforms and new laws.
