Ivan IV, 'the Terrible' (1533-1584), is one of the key figures in Russian history. Notorious for pioneering a policy of unrestrained terror - and for killing his own son - he has been credited with establishing autocracy in Russia. This biography of Ivan, from birth to death, studies his policies, his marriages and his atrocities.
