Book Reviews of The Romanovs: the Final ChapterBook Review: Definitive Answers About What Happened to the Romanovs Summary: 5 Stars
In this book, the author totally convinces the reader that the Romanovs were indeed murdered and their bones positively identified through scientific means. The author also proves to the reader that Anna Anderson, who posed as the duchess Anastasia, was an impostor. There is also some interesting information on living Romanov heirs who believe that the monarchy will be reestablished in Russia. I would recommend this book to those interested in Russian history.
Book Review: Very good for the year it was made Summary: 5 Stars
Robert Massie was the author who best recorded all the discoveries of the Romanovs in 1990's, when at long last the secrets were revealed. However, one fact remains, two bodies are still missing, the bodies of Anastasia and Alexei, and they weren't burned to ashes. "The Fate of the Romanovs" by Greg King and Penny Wilson demonstrates just why and also is the most updated book. Get that one as an update to this one.
Book Review: A great book about the last days of the last Czar of Russia Summary: 5 Stars
My review is also a little biased since I am mildly obsessed with this subject. A great book recounting not only the entire plan of the execution, but even gives the diary entries from the Czarita's diary, up to hours before the execution. Also gives the case of who is really missing: Marie or Anastasia? Wonderfully written is this "sequel" to "Nicolas & Alexandra." My personal favorite.
Book Review: The Final chapter...or is it? Summary: 5 Stars
This is a book you expected Massie to write.....since Nicholas & Alexandra was written in (I think) 1969, an update since 1991 was critical. It gives you an idea what was being discovered in DNA research and proving the bones found were who they were. Its a book a Romanov observer should have, or at least read to glean the information from. Worth it, for sure.
Book Review: The Romanovs Summary: 5 Stars
Massie wrote an excellent and very detail book on the quest to find and identify the last Romanovs. The book began with the finding and identification of the bones and then went into the Anna Anderson mystery. Massie is a great writer which he nonetheless proved in this book.
