The book by Heinrich Ehrlich “Tsar Boris, nicknamed Godunov” is a literary investigation from the series “Chronicles of Terrible Tsars and Troubled Times”, written based on materials from the “new chronology” of A.T. Fomenko. The largest figure in Russian history of the last quarter of the 16th - beginning of the 17th century there was, undoubtedly, Boris Godunov, whose personality to this day causes fierce debate among historians and inspires writers and poets. Who was he? An unknown bodyguard of Tsar Ivan the Terrible, promoted to the highest positions in the state? A cunning schemer? A great ambitious man striving for a royal crown? A cold-blooded killer who eliminates all rivals on the way to the throne? Or a great statesman who raised Russia to unprecedented heights? A person who rightfully and legally occupied the royal throne? And what was the cause of the terrible catastrophe that befell both Tsar Boris himself and Russia in the last years of his reign? Was there such a person at all, Boris Godunov, or through the efforts of Romanov historians, he, like Ivan the Terrible, was “glued together” from several real historical characters? The reader will find answers to these and many other questions in this book.
