This engaging Who Was? title delves into the remarkable life of Catherine the Great, born as Princess Sophie of Anhalt-Zerbs in 1729. Initially destined for a quiet life, she rose to power at sixteen through her marriage to the heir of the Russian throne. In 1762, she overthrew her husband, Peter III, and went on to transform Russia into a major European power, known for her expansion efforts, advancements in education, and support for the arts during her three-decade reign.
