Catherine the Great of Russia had a career no biographer need highlight for effect and Miss Thomson gives it a stirring recital. But she does considerably more; the setting is expertly sketched, the cities, social background, even the physical geography of eighteenth-century Russia are described with precision, and space is found for the arts and sciences.-Saturday Review of Literature
