Tsesarevich Aleksei

description:

A photo-biography of Aleksei Nikolaevich, illustrated with over 100  photos (vintage and contemporary) and paintings of Aleksei, his family, homes, and possessions. Emphasis on the Lower Dacha at Peterhof.

(Title in Russian: Цесаревич Алексей)

unique features:

Photos of the christening procession of Aleksei Nikolaevich, published here for the first time.

similar to:

Nicholas II: The Imperial Family
Tsesarevich

in my opinion:

Many of these photos can be found in other books, particularly Nicholas II: The Imperial Family. With the possible exception of the christening photos, this book is not a necessity.
