The Fate of the Romanovs

"A startlingly revisionist history of the last months of the Imperial family that compellingly destroys the tired old romantic clichés."
—Financial Times

"The Fate of the Romanovs is both encyclopaedic and compelling."
—Evening Standard

"This book is sure to become the standard for which all future books on the Romanovs will be based."

Based on a careful analysis of more than 500 previously unpublished archival documents, The Fate of the Romanovs shatters the mythology surrounding the murder of Tsar Nicholas II and his family in 1918 to present the most extensively researched and current examination of one of the twentieth century's most gruesome and controversial events.
