The book is about the second-longest reigning monarch in Bulgarian history. Sitting on the throne between 1331 and 1371, Ivan Alexander led his kingdom into a period of economic recovery and cultural and religious renaissance. But later, in an ill-fated attempt to resist incursions by Ottoman and Hungarian forces and to cope with the Black Death, he divided Bulgaria between his two sons, thus forcing the country to face the imminent Ottoman conquest weakened and divided. In this relatively small book, Nikolai Ovcharov presents all important political events and cultural developments of that dramatic period. He takes a fresh look at some of Ivan Alexander's military and diplomatic moves and sets forth his own original ideas about the king's domestic and foreign policies. Ovcharov is perhaps the best known contemporary Bulgarian archeologist.
