A compelling work of Russian historical biography, Ivan III and the Unification of Russia chronicles the reign of one of the most consequential rulers in medieval history. Ian Grey presents the remarkable story of Ivan III, the Grand Prince of Moscow who transformed a fractured collection of rival principalities into a unified Russian state during the latter half of the fifteenth century. Grey details Ivan's shrewd political manoeuvring, his decisive military campaigns, and his pivotal role in finally casting off the Mongol yoke that had dominated Russia for over two centuries. Written with scholarly authority yet accessible to the general reader, the work illustrates how Ivan's legacy laid the very foundations upon which the later Russian Empire would be built, earning him the title Ivan the Great.
