With the name of Count Karl Vasilyevich Nesselrode, who headed the Russian foreign policy department for forty years and more than sixty years in public service, a whole era in the history of the foreign policy of the Russian Empire is connected. It was a time of unprecedented prestige of Russia in the international arena. Meanwhile, in the 19th century, in the public consciousness, an almost caricature idea of Nesselrode was formed as a “dwarf "and a“ rogue", a "unprecedented coward", a “traitor-a German ", which sequentially betrayed Russian interests. It seems that such a very unilateral and biased look needs a serious revaluation. On the pages of this book - based on the vast epistolary heritage of Count Nesselrode - an attempt was made to free his image from many years of stereotypical layers. It is shown by a statesman who not only built a brilliant career (from the midshipman of the Russian fleet to the State Chancellor of the Russian Empire), but also contributing to the foreign policy successes of Russia
