About this deal

Anyway. I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this book and the events it covers. We could discuss it at length, but I should probably do some work tonight.

The Romanov entourage. From left to right: Catherine Schneider; Ilya Tatishchev; Pierre Gilliard; Anastasia Hendrikova; and Vasily Dolgorukov. They voluntarily accompanied the Romanov family into imprisonment but were forcibly separated by the Bolsheviks at Ekaterinburg. All except Gilliard were later murdered by the Bolsheviks.

This novel chronicled the final days of the Romanov family, shining a light on Anastasia. Did she die in Ekaterinburg with the rest of her family or didn't she? That is what the author wants the reader to decide. I, for one, always loved the notion surrounding this legend. I hoped, no matter how far-fetched or doubtful the probability, that Anna Anderson really was Anastasia Romanov. I like this one. Slow at first, then the excitement comes a little quite good in the middle through the end. And the author's note summarize it all... No just just kidding but almost 😂🤣😄

The Romanovs: An Intimate Chronicle of the Russian Royal

Since Anna Anderson died in 1984 has two things happened, for one thing, has DNA showed that she was not Anastasia, and also the graves of the Romanov's family has been found with the bones of ALL the children. So, how do you write a book when this is well-known? Easy, you make the both Anna and Anastasia's stories so believable that you want it to be true.It makes me cringe to see "perfect resource for meeting Common Core Standards" on a trade book blurb. Savvy teachers and librarians can determine how to use quality books. In second grade, I discovered a passion for language. I can still remember the day my teacher, Miss Johnson, held up a horn-shaped basket filled with papier-mache pumpkins and asked the class to repeat the word "cornucopia." I said it again and again, tasted the word on my lips. I tested it on my ears. That afternoon, I skipped all the way home from school chanting, "Cornucopia! Cornucopia!" From then on, I really began listening to words—to the sounds they made, and the way they were used, and how they made me feel. I longed to put them together in ways that were beautiful, and yet told a story.

After the Romanovs: Russian exiles in Paris between the wars

Execution Of The Romanov Family on YouTube as seen in the 2000 film The Romanovs: An Imperial FamilyLawhon clarifies what she takes liberty with in the telling of the story, and I appreciate what appears to be a well researched account. 3 stars but an extra half for the intrigue that has me wanting to read more about the Romanovs. Serge, Victor (1932).
