 | | The tragedy of the Romanovs, the doomed imperial family of Russia, was the tragedy of the entire country. |
 | | This fast-moving account of the past century and a half of the Romanov family is thorough, dramatic, and shows in great detail the chasm between the well-to-do and the peasant working class, a gap that led to revolution. |
 | | The fact is that most of the imperial family didn't have a clue about the world outside their royal cocoon and were ill-prepared to understand the rapid sweep of events that led to the loss of their status, power, money and, for some, their lives. |
