This 1908 historical compilation offers a detailed examination of the final palace coup of the 18th century, which brought Catherine the Great to the Russian throne. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the conspiracy orchestrated on June 28, 1762, by Catherine Alexeyevna and the guard officers led by the Orlov brothers against Emperor Peter III. Assembling primary documents, including memoirs and personal correspondence of those directly involved, the volume serves as a vital primary source for documenting the shifting allegiances of the Senate, the Synod, and the Imperial Guard regiments. These forces culminated in the proclamation of Catherine as the autocratic Empress and the reading of the Manifesto of Accession at the Winter Palace. Published during the twilight of the Russian Empire by the Russian Partnership of Printing and Publishing, this edition is enriched by rare phototype portraits and artistic plates that visually anchor the dramatic narrative of the coup. It remains a cornerstone for scholars and collectors interested in the transition of power during Russia's "Age of Palace Revolutions" and the strategic rise of one of history's most powerful female rulers.
