| Summary: Although the main facts about the murder of the Russian imperial family in 1918 are familiar enough, knowledge about how hard their relatives in Europe tried to rescue them is less certain. Using a wealth of sources, some recently rediscovered, this book investigates the efforts made on their behalf during the revolution and their sixteen months of captivity. Several other books have examined the subject, but this is the best so far and unlikely to be bettered. | |
