Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a memoir by a Russian who was compelled to go into exile for his political views. An active liberal in his homeland, the author details his recall to Russia, his subsequent persecution, and the events that led to his exile. The book offers insights into the reign of Emperor Nicholas I and the oppressive nature of his rule, and provides a first-hand account of the police state he implemented, which repressed freedom of expression, opinion, and even dress. The author writes as an insider, a member of the nobility, who was close to the center of power, yet abhorred the government's tyranny. He includes in the book many personal anecdotes and observations of the court that shed light on the character of the Emperor and the psychology of power.
