This is an older book, but it is still to this day, THE book to read if you are at all interested in the story of Nicholas and Alexandra. Their story is more fascinating, more interesting that any bestseller fiction could ever hope to be. This is no dry, for professors only, type history book!

This book is fascinating! It has everything a great fiction should; romance, murder, drama and mystery. The amazing thing is that it's all true!

Massie did a good job telling the story of the last tsar and tsarina of Russia. The book is well-written and is not a "just the facts" telling but it is more of a tragic tale of what happened to the leaders of a nation that were so out of touch with the people of that nation.

This is a history of the last Czar and Czarina of Russia. Being a history buff, I enjoyed it immensely, and have read it more than once. If you would like to see the faces of the people behind the fall of the Russian empire, pre-Soviet Union, try this.

A fascinating true account of Nicholas and Alexandra Romanov, the last Tzar and Tzarina of Russia, and their children. Lots of pictures. A story of tragedy but also a love story, and all rich with history and truth. Very moving and sad, being it is a true story.

Informative, but not as gripping as Peter the Great. I suppose that the subject matter has everything to do with that.
