Romanovs: Love, Power & Tragedy

description:

Coffee table-size book featuring hundreds of formal and informal photos, complemented by essays by Russian archivists and historians. Focuses almost exclusively on the family of Nicholas II.

unique features:

Photographs of diaries, letters, and artwork of the Imperial Family are scattered throughout. Extended captions provide excerpts from the diaries and correspondence.

similar to:

Nicholas II: The Imperial Family
Nicholas & Alexandra: The Family Albums
Tsar: The Lost World of Nicholas and Alexandra

in my opinion:

A fine and - for the moment - less expensive alternative to Prince Michael’s Nicholas & Alexandra: The Family Albums. Also excellent in its own right.
