"Moscow Kingdom" - the last book in the famous cycle of George Vernadsky - covers 150 years, covering the reign of Ivan the Terrible, the Time of Troubles, the establishment of the Romanovs on the throne, the church schism, reunification with Ukraine, the rebellion of Stepan Razin, the conquest of Siberia, the first diplomatic contacts with China. This is a book about how Russia, having gone through great upheavals, managed not only to survive, but also to lay the foundation for the creation of a great empire, spread in two parts of the world. Presenting a broad historical canvas, the author, however, does not avoid details that help to understand the political kitchen of the tsars, the processes within the Russian Church, international relations, the subtleties of relations with foreigners, the patient attitude of the government to the "treason" of the Ukrainian Cossacks and most importantly - how lived in that difficult time ordinary Russian people. Georgy Vernadsky (1888-1973) was a Russian-American historian, professor at Yale University, son of Vladimir Vernadsky and student of Vasily Klyuchevsky.
