Ivan The Terrible
Carr, Francis
Description:
Ivan the Terrible rivals Stalin for the doubtful distinction of being Russia's most oppressive and cruel tyrant. His entire life was a catalogue of atrocities against foreigners and fellow countrymen alike.His childhood was haunted by fear of treason and court intrigue, his father dying when Ivan was just three and his mother when we has eight.In these precarious circumstances, he came to favour cruelty and arrogance as more appropriate than the qualities of kindness and courtesy
