The Admiral and the Empress is a historical book written by Lincoln Lorenz that explores the unlikely friendship and political alliance between two prominent figures of the 18th century: John Paul Jones, the American naval hero, and Catherine the Great, the Empress of Russia. The book delves into the personal and political lives of both individuals, their backgrounds, and their rise to power. It also provides a detailed account of their interactions and correspondence, which began when Jones was seeking support from Russia during the American Revolution. The book sheds light on the strategic importance of their relationship and how it influenced the course of history, particularly the American Revolution and the Russo-Turkish War. Through extensive research and analysis, Lorenz offers a captivating narrative that combines history, politics, and personal drama. The Admiral and the Empress is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the intersection of politics and personal relationships in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
