Nicholas and Alexandra : The Last Tsar and his Family Hardback
by Robert K. Massie
Hardback
Description
An illustrated edition of Robert Massie's Nicholas and Alexandra, published to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the execution of Tsar Nicholas II and his family in 1918.
A superbly crafted and humane portrait of the last days - and last rulers - of the Russian Empire.
Pulitzer prize-winning author 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.
