Abby I even called the store that runs the site and they said there were multiple authors so they really couldn't give me name

Books about the Romanovs and Imperial Russia / Book on Nicholas II in Russian [by Shelayev et. al.]

« on: August 31, 2004, 02:35:27 PM »

I like the site RomanovRussia even if the things are too expensive to buy I like looking at the items. At the end of the site there are books that are recommended. One is a book "Nicholas II", but it's in Russian, it has Nicholas on the cover holding Alexei

If I wanted to do a search does anyone know the authors?Does anyone have any opinions on the book?

I saw this pic on The Glittering Abyss website

Does anyone have individual copies of the photos pictured here? Especially of the one on the top right of Alix sitting in the chair when she was little?

I love the portraits of Queen Victoria and her family by Winterhalter. He supposedly did one of the 4 eldest girls (Vicky, Alice, Louise & Helena) but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have a copy it?

I don't know about anyone else but whenever I see baby pics of OTMA or Alexei I wish I could reach thru the photo and pick them up and rescue them from the awful way they died

Tsarevich Alexei Nicholaievich / Question about and/or Help with Picture(s)

On Livida.org they have some of Anastasia's section up now. I think this pic of OTMA is so funny with the face Anastasia is making.

But my question is this. The baby on the end that the sailor is holding, is that Alexei dressed all frilly like that???

Rulers Prior to Nicholas II / Alexander III

In different books I've read about Nicholas II, they often talk about the train wreck Alexander III was in and how he practically held the roof of the carriage up so his family could escape While surfing the web today I found a pic of the wreck
