That's the book I was talking about, Bob--I got it off of a website called motka.com, and it is very popular on Ebay now-a-days.

The Myth and Legends of Survivors / Re: Anna Anderson and Anastasia

Personally, I don't think Anna Anderson looked like Anastasia at all.  All the pictures--she's got her head bowed in a certain way that one sees in some pictures of Anastasia, and the nose looks similar from that angle, but that's the ONLY resemblance I've noticed, ever.  I agree with Bob wholeheartedly!

I purchased a book called Nicholas II: The Imperial Family a year or so ago, published in 1998, and it talks about Peterhof and has old photographs from the rooms in the Lower Palace (I believe, I don't remember, I should go get it!) and even a reproduced fabric made to match this rose fabric that covered one of Alexandra's rooms.  If anyone's interested I wouldn't mind scanning them in!
