This is the diary of Stefan Stambolov (1854-1895), a prominent Bulgarian revolutionary and statesman, one of the founders of modern Bulgaria. Even today, Stambolov presents two faces to the world. Some people believe he was the quintessential leader, a politician who defended the national interests. Others say he was a self-centered man who used terror to cling to power. But these opinions are largely based on biographies and memoirs written by people who may have failed to adequately capture Stambolov's personality. Only the diary which he kept between 1886 and 1887, in the lead-up to his seven-year stint as prime minister, can give us authentic information about him.
