Alexander I – #9 On The Best Russian Ruler list

Alexander I, was the head of the Russian state when it was invaded by Napoleon.

Since I recently blogged on Alexander, instead of rehashing his life, you can read about it here.

Hi, I'm Mark Schauss and I an internationally known lecturer on environmental and nutritional health issues having spoken in North America, Asia, South America, Europe and soon in Australia. I also have a deep interest in history, especially Russian history because of my heritage through my mother's side of the family.
Another large influence on my love of Russian History is my college professor the late Dr. Paul Avrich. His classes were always full and his passion for history was amazing. I wish he could have found out about my podcast before he passed away.
