The story of the Tolstoys is one of astonishing variety: shipwrecks, duels, conspiracies, battles and massacres; Leo Tolstoy`s agonizing search for the one philosophical truth; Peter the Great`s mingled fear and respect for Peter Tolstoy and Stalin`s grant of limitless wealth to Alexei Nikolaevich. Thrones are toppled and campaigns won by these extraordinary men as they flash across six centuries of Russian history, seemingly governed by passions as vast as the events they dominated.

This immensely colourful, always entertaining and sometimes blood-chilling book is both a history of Russia, seen through the eyes of one family, and also a story of individuals.
