Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexei Romanov, heir to the Russian throne, is in deadly danger. It¹s 1916, the struggling Russian people are tired of war and are blaming their Romanov rulers for it, and some are secretly plotting to murder the young heir and his family. But nobody outside the palace knows that Alexei suffers from a terrible bleeding disease, hemophilia, which threatens to finish him off even before the family¹s enemies can. The only person able to help Alexei is the evil and powerful religious mystic Rasputin -- and now Rasputin is trying to kill him too! Desperate, Alexei flees through time to New York City in 2010, using a method taught to him by the mad monk himself. In New York, Alexei meets smart and sassy Varda Rosenberg, and discovers she is a distant cousin. Varda is working on a gene therapy cure for hemophilia, as the disease still runs in the family. When Alexei learns that history shows that his entire family will be assassinated in 1918, he and Varda travel back in time to the Russian Revolution, with Rasputin hot on their heels. Will they be able to rescue Alexei¹s family before it¹s too late? Staton Rabin lets Alexei tell his own riveting story in a rousing adventure with stunning surprises -- a movingly authentic look at royalty and revolution in the days of the tsars.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Curse of the Romanovs: A Study of the Lives and the Reigns of Two Tsars Paul I and Alexander I of Russia; 1754-1825 The eyes of Europe are directed towards Russia, the European China, where the scion of the house of Romanov is seated on his tottering throne, frightened at the phantom of an approaching Revolution. Convulsively he is clinging to the throne of his ancestors, reluctant to give up what he considers his right. But has Nicholas II a right to the Russian throne? Yes, the right of the usurper! Michael Romanov was elected Tsar of Russia by the voice of the nation, but Peter I, his grandson, was the son of an unknown parent. The Tsar himself knew that he was not the son of Alexis, and one day he asked Count Yaguzhinsky to tell him whether he was his father. The Count, however, replied that it was difficult to say, as the Tsaritza had so many lovers. Elizabeth may or may not have been the daughter of Peter the Great. She was in any case the daughter of Catherine I, a former Livonian servant. The legitimacy of Paul I is doubtful, and if one is to believe the confessions of Catherine II he was not a Romanov. For nearly three centuries these so-called Romanovs have ruled over Russia, but they have remained strangers to the people under the sway of their sceptre.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Curse of the Romanovs: A Study of the Lives and the Reigns of Two Tsars Paul I and Alexander I of Russia; 1754-1825 Of their rulers in connection only with their mis fortunes, with Oppression, war, military colonies, police, prisons, Schluesselburg, Siberia, the mines, tortures, and the knout. And it is also the doom of Autocracy that even its attempts at liberalism should be frustrated. Autocracy, I do not hesitate to maintain, must be the enemy of the people or Autocracy would cease to exist, but the logical result Of its attitude will one day be its annihilation. Sooner or later assassination is the inevitable fate of the ruler whose Oppression becomes unbearable, as in the case Of Paul I, whilst disappointment and a return to reactionary measures is the result of all liberal attempts on the part Of Autocracy, as in the case of Alexander I. Paul I and Alex ander I, the subjects Of the present study, are two typical examples Of the fate of the Romanovs. They either remain faithful to the spirit Of Auto cracy, and assassination stares them in the face, or they inaugurate an era of liberalism, but finding that they thus undermine their own existence, they turn reactionaries and lose their mental balance, as in the case of Alexander.

Download or read book Four Sisters The Lost Lives of the Romanov Grand Duchesses written by Helen Rappaport and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 17 July 1918, four young women walked down into the cellar of a house in Ekaterinburg. The eldest was twenty-two, the youngest only seventeen. Together with their parents and their thirteen-year-old brother, they were all brutally murdered. Their crime: to be the daughters of the last Tsar and Tsaritsa of All the Russias. In Four Sisters acclaimed biographer Helen Rappaport offers readers the most authoritative account yet of the Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia. Drawing on their own letters and diaries, she paints a vivid picture of their lives in the dying days of the Romanov dynasty. We see, almost for the first time, their journey from a childhood of enormous privilege, throughout which they led a very sheltered and largely simple life, to young womanhood – their first romantic crushes, their hopes and dreams, the difficulty of coping with a mother who was a chronic invalid and a haemophiliac brother, and, latterly, the trauma of the revolution and its terrible consequences. Compellingly readable, meticulously researched and deeply moving, Four Sisters gives these young women a voice, and allows their story to resonate for readers almost a century after their death.

Book excerpt: Soon to be a major motion picture starring Kristin Scott Thomas (The English Patient), directed by Stefan Ruzowitzky (The Counterfeiters) Drawing from decades of work, travel, and research in Russia, Robert Alexander re-creates the tragic, perennially fascinating story of the final days of Nicholas and Alexandra Romanov as seen through the eyes of their young kitchen boy, Leonka. Now an ancient Russian immigrant, Leonka claims to be the last living witness to the Romanovs’ brutal murders and sets down the dark secrets of his past with the imperial family. Does he hold the key to the many questions surrounding the family’s murder? Historically vivid and compelling, The Kitchen Boy is also a touching portrait of a loving family that was in many ways similar, yet so different, from any other.
