Summary: A wonderful, grasping book
Comment: This book is by far one of the best Romanov books out there. It's a rather big book and it is filled with wonderful photographs of the family. There are also many photos of the grand palaces in which the family lived their lives. The text is also very good on certain levels. Peter Kurth tells the story of the last Russian Imperial family with great detail right up to the very end. This is a must read and no Romanov library is complete without it.
Rating: 5
Summary: A wonderful compilation of photographs...
Comment: ...with an excellent accompanying text. The photos a generally well-presented and wonderfully-selected. The book as a whole presents to the reader a family that is at once normal and extraordinary, silly and stately, casual and imperial, joyful and tragic. Great for the coffee table.

Summary: Great pictures, questionable text
Comment: I will say that that Kurth's book about the last imperial family is rather extrodinary and interesting. The photos that he included in the book were outstanding, they displayed a quite vivid insight into the tsar's family life and the world in which they lived. I finally sat down and read through the book one day and was quite disturbed by the way in which he displayed the family. He took away that feeling of innocence and love the family had. To rap it all up he included that fraud Anna Anderson in the final chapter of his book. She was not the grand duchesse and should not have been included. Overall the book was good and I would recommend it to anybody that wants not only to learn about the family but also the world in which they lived.
