They were the Princess Dianas of these day - perhaps the most photographed and discussed young royals of the early 20th hundred years. The four captivating Russian Grand Duchesses - Olga, Tatiana, Maria, and Anastasia Romanov - were much respected for his or her happy dispositions, their looks, the clothes they used, and their privileged lifestyle. Over time, the storyplot of the four Romanov sisters and their tragic result in a basement at Ekaterinburg in 1918 has clouded our view of these, leading to scores of sentimental and idealized hagiography. With this treasure trove of diaries and words from the grand duchesses to their friends and family, we learn that they were intelligent, hypersensitive, and perceptive witnesses to the dark turmoil within their immediate family and the ominous strategy of the Russian Trend - the nightmare that could sweep their world away and them along with it. The Romanov Sisters places out to capture the pleasure as well as the insecurities and poignancy of those young lives against the setting of the dying days of late Imperial Russia, World War I, and the Russian Trend. Helen Rappaport aims to present a fresh and challenging undertake the story, pulling extensively on previously unseen or unpublished words, diaries, and archival sources, as well as private selections. It really is a publication that will amaze people, even aficionados.
