You are considering a hardback book, without DJ,THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE AND GRAND DUCHY OF MUSCOVY, A 17th-CENTURY FRENCH ACCOUNT by Jacques Margeret, translated and edited by Chester S.L. Dunning; PUBLISHER: University of Pittsburgh Press; 1983 printing; 216 pages. Jacques Margeret was a mercenary soldier who arrived in Russia in 1600 during the reign of Boris Godunov. For six years he served Boris and his successor Tsar Dmitri Ivanovich, first as co-commander of foreign troops and later as captain of the elite palace guard. Margeret offers a unique first-hand account of the political intrigues of this turbulent time and ponders the question of the pretender\'s true identity. Writing for the French public, to whom Muscovy was virtually unknown, Margeret also describes Russian geography, climate, flora and fauna, customs, the Russian Orthodox Church, the military, and daily life at court. Dunning has translated the edition first printed in France in 1607 and provided notes identifying obscure references and evaluating the accuracy of Margeret\'s observations in light of accumulated historical research.Condition: No known damage to book.
