[Eurohistory]

G. Korneva and T. Cheboksarova's excellent book on the dynastic ties between the Romanovs and other European Royal families is to be published by Eurohistory early in the new year!

Enjoy, Arturo

Looks very good, Art. Very excited about it.

Can't wait! I will definitely be buying this.  I saw the Russian language copy of this book in St. Petersburg.  I wanted it so badly in English though.  It's got excellent photos.  I promise it won't disappoint. :-)

Indeed. Here at Eurohistory we were trying to get copies of the book from Russia and during our negotiating it was suggested that we become Liki Rossii's window to the West.

We believe that both companies will benefit greatly ... while also being able to produce the books that sop many of us want!

If all goes well...there will be many other projects, surely, that both companies and all our authors can cooperate in!

Art, I'm so happy to read this.  Liki Rossii has some amazing publications.  With your knowledge and ability to reach our niche audience with unique content, I can only predict wonderful things for both publishing houses.   

[Eurohistory]

They do have fascinating publications!

We are already working on RUSSIA AND EUROPE.

Hopefully then we can do one for the 400th Anniversary in 2013 with new images of the dynasty. Mrs Korneva and I are debating various ideas.

What has happened to Grand Dukes 2 ?

[Marie Valerie]

Will the Eurohistory book be 100% exactly the same as the Liki Rossii one, or are there any photos or text missing from the original?
Or maybe some new info/photos added?

What has happened to Grand Dukes 2 ?

Here's Art's update & news on that book:

The contents will change a bit. I would like more photos of people, fewer of machines, rooms and ancillary non-royal people.

ALL photos will be correctly identified and the text has already been greatly improved. Galina is fully involved with me in this process.

For those of your who own a copy of my ROYAL HELLENIC DYNASTY (http://www.amazon.com/Hellenic-Dynasty-Prince-Michael-Greece/dp/0977196151/ref=pd_sim_b_52) ... Russia and Europe – Dynastic Ties will be in the same format.

The book is taking shape and as of Monday I'm dedicating a considerable amount of daily work hours to get the project along for publication in January 2013.

PAUL GILBERT now has the Liki Rossii one in his shop: It costs 150 Canadian Dollars = 117 Euro !!!
At the Liki Rossii homepage the book costs 1500 Russian Rubel = 37,70 Euro
It is imported from Russia, and sure the shop will make some profit, but this is far too expensive..

I hope Eurohistory will be cheaper...

[Eurohistory]

You can rest assured that Eurohistory's copies will be priced at no more than $49.95.

:-)

On top of that in some instances we are using my version of the photos used, which are sharper, cleaner, clearer...and ALL photos will be correctly identified, which is not the case with the Russian-printed version of the book.


I have been working on the book for a week now and am aiming for publication in early February 2013.

For anyone interested who lives near Washington DC. The authors will be at the Hillwood Museum Wednesday 6 February 5:30pm - 7:30pm.

Romanov Splendor: An evening with Galina Korneva & Ulla Tillander-Godenhielm

Immerse yourself in the richly illustrated glamour of Imperial Russia with Galina Korneva and Ulla Tillander-Godenhielm.

Galina Korneva’s newest publication, Russia and Europe, co-authored with Tatiana Cheboksarova, tells the fascinating stories of the life and tragic end of the Romanov dynasty.  Explore more than 500 photographs rarely seen from Russian and other European archives, and gain insight to the magnificent residences of the Romanovs, the extraordinary collections of fine arts they contained.   

Ulla Tillander-Godenhielm focuses on fascinating range of jewels and objects d’art crafted in St. Pertersburg during the golden age of ornamental design.  Starting with the reign of Elizabeth, Empress of Russia, through that of Catherine the Great and ending in 1917 with the passing of Nicholas II, Jewels from Imperial St. Petersburg is intertwined with captivating personal and imperial history.

I have been asked by the Museum to be there as well. Looking forward to seeing both Galina and Ulla, who I have not seen in many years.

There are actually a few of us who are going to try to go. We can have a regular AP Forum meetup.
