  History and biography meet in Tales of Imperial Russia,
a study of the late-Romanov Russian Empire, told through the figure of Sergei Witte. Like Bismarck or Gorbachev, Witte
was a European statesman serving an empire. He was the most important statesman of pre-revolutionary Russia. In the
Georgia, Odessa, Kyiv, and St. Petersburg of the nineteenth century, he inhabited the worlds of the Victorian Age, as
young boy, student, railway executive, lover of divorcees and Jews, monarchist, and technocrat.
  His political
career saw him construct the Tran-Siberian Railway, propel Russia towards Far Eastern war with Japan, visit America in
1905 to negotiate the Treaty of Portsmouth concluding that war, and return home to confront revolutionary disorder with
the State Duma, the first Russian parliament. The book is based on two memoir manuscripts that Witte wrote between 1906
and 1912, and includes his account of Nicholas II, the Empress Alexandra, and the machinations of a Russian imperial
court that he believed were leading the country to revolution. Telling the story both of a life and of the last days of
the Tsarist empire, Tales of Imperial Russia will delight and inform all those interested in biography, literature, and
history, as well as readers interested in the history of modern 
  
  Reviews
  "An innovative and informative study. . . . a textured and elegant view
of a man who was so central to Russia as it balanced on the brink between either revolution or economic and political
modernization."--The Wall Street Journal
  
  "A very fine
book...Wcislo's excellent book offers us fresh way of thinking about Witte as a creature of his time, a man full of
far-fetched plans and contradictory impulses." --The Russian Review
  
 
"A stellar combination of historiography and a history of the last years of czarist Russia...Recommended." --CHOICE
