Description:
Discover the remarkable life of Alexandra Feodorovna.... Alexandra Feodorovna, the last Empress of Russia, remains one of the most tragic figures of the twentieth century. Born into European royalty and later married to Tsar Nicholas II, she became empress of a vast empire—only to see it crumble around her. Revered and reviled, powerful yet powerless, Alexandra's story is one of love, loss, and fatal misjudgments during a time of monumental upheaval. She had the rare privilege of marrying for love, yet her husband—though devoted—was a ruler ill-equipped for the challenges of revolution and war. Entranced by the mystic Rasputin and desperate to save her hemophiliac son, Alexandra made decisions that would forever alter the fate of the Romanovs. From her early life in Germany to her final days in captivity, this book explores the complicated legacy of a woman who lived—and died—at the center of one of history's most dramatic collapses.
