Book Reviews of Nicholas & Alexandra
Book Review: learning history while being highly entertained
Summary: 5 Stars
As the book went on it became more interesting and once I finished it i appreciated every chapter. it was fascinating to learn how much alexandra influenced Nicholas and see how his character made him incapable of being the leader he should have been. I felt I was given a good image of what life was like in the time period in which Russia's monarchy was coming to an end. Despite getting a numerous amount of facts it didn't feel like I was reading the typically boring history book.i also got a feel of what it is for someone to have hemophelia, their youngest and only son had it.
Summary of Nicholas & Alexandra
Nicholas & Alexandra is the internationally famous biography from Pulitzer prize-winner Robert Massie. Massie shows conclusively how the personal curse of the young heir's haemophilia, and the decisive influence it brought Rasputin, became fatally linked with the collapse of Imperial Russia. As an engrossing account of one of the century's most dramatic episodes ' and an intimate portrait of two people caught at the centre of a maelstrom ' Nicholas & Alexandra is unlikely ever to be surpassed. 'The story of the last Tsar has probably never been so powerfully ' and so accurately ' told' GuardianHistorical Books
