A superbly crafted and humane portrait of the final days of the
last Romanovs - Nicholas II of Russia and his wife Alexandra.
Complementing his Pulitzer prize-winning Peter the Great, in this
commanding book Robert K. Massie sweeps readers back to the
extraordinary world of imperial Russia to tell the story of the
decline and fall of the ruling Romanov family: Tsar Nicholas II's
political naivete; his wife Alexandra's obsession with the corrupt
mystic Rasputin; and their son Alexis's battle with haemophilia.
Against a lavish backdrop of luxury and intrigue, Massie unfolds a
family tragedy played out on the brutal stage of early
twentieth-century Russian history - the tale of a doomed empire and
the death-marked royals who watched it crumble.
