Praise for The Court of the Last Tsar""Any book by Greg King is a book to be kept and savored. He has not only given us a fresh; clear-eyed; and often startling new look at the life of the last Romanovs; but also lived up to the promise of his title. He has shown us how the whole enterprise worked; from Tsar Nicholas to his lowest cook and chambermaid. This book is a great work of scholarship--and a wonderful read.""--Peter Kurth; author of Tsar: The Lost World of Nicholas and Alexandra and Anastasia: The Riddle of Anna Anderson""A mammoth; monumental achievement. No other book captures the essence and the entire scope of life at the court of Nicholas II. It's a thoroughly enjoyable and encyclopedic masterpiece that will be a major source for historians and biographers for years to come.""--Marlene A. Eilers; author of Queen Victoria's Descendants and publisher of Royal Book News""Greg King has truly written a tour de force. The book is extremely well researched; has over 100 illustrations and is; quite simply; marvelous.""--Coryne Hall; author of Little Mother of Russia; Once a Grand Duchess; and Imperial Dancer""Greg King is emerging as one of the leading authorities in today's liveliest field of Russian studies; and this is a major contribution to the study of late Imperial Russia.""--Joseph T. Fuhrmann; author of Rasputin and the editor of The Complete Wartime Correspondence of Tsar Nicholas II and the Empress Alexandra

The book is great; but be aware if you opt for the kindle edition it is not paged which makes it difficult when the readings for lessons are listed by page numbers.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
