A magnificent and intimate (Harpers) modern classic of Russian history, the spellbinding story of the love that ended an empire-from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Peter the Great, The Romanovs, and Catherine the GreatA moving, rich book . . . [This] revealing, densely documented account of the last Romanovs focuses not on the great events . . . but on the royal family and their evil nemesis. . . . The tale is so bizarre, no melodrama is equal to it.-NewsweekIn this commanding book, New York Times bestselling author Robert K. Massie sweeps readers back to the extraordinary world of the Russian empire to tell the story of the Romanovs lives: Nicholass political navet, Alexandras obsession with the corrupt mystic Rasputin, and little Alexiss brave struggle with hemophilia. Against a lavish backdrop of luxury and intrigue, Massie unfolds a powerful drama of passion and history-the story of a doomed empire and the death-marked royals who watched it crumble.
