	ALEXANDER, JOHN T. Catherine the Great: Life and Legend. New York: Oxford University Press 1989. Book of the Month Club Edition. Hardbound 8vo (about 8'' to 9.5'' tall) 418 pages. Appendix, notes, bibliography, index. Description: Includes a section of b&w plates. Portrayed variously as a political genius who restored to Russia the glory it had once known, and a despotic foreign adventuress who usurped the Russian throne, murdered her rivals, and tyrannized her subjects, Catherine the Great was by any account, an extraordinary woman. This is the first popular biography of the empress based on modern scholarship, and provides a vivid portrait of Catherine as a mother, a lover, and above all, an extremely savvy ruler. Concentrating on her long reign (1762-96), John Alexander examines all aspects of Catherine's life and the legends that grew around her. The author begins with an account of the dramatic palace revolt by which Catherine unseated her husband and a background chapter describing the circumstances of her early childhood and marriage, then proceeds chronologically through the 34 years of her reign. BINDING/CONDITION: paper covered boards with cloth at the spine; a Very Good book, with a Very Good dust jacket.
