Georgiy:
I don't know if it was his absolute favourite, but, yes, he liked it very much. I am sure I have read that one of his tutors said that, and his own copy of the book is still around.

If only I could be that weight again! I've gotten a little more plump on the cruise. Speaking of food, were Alexei & his sisters denied second helpings of food, like Nicholas was?
