“Epic historical past at the grandest scale. . . . Game of Thrones seems just like the proverbial vicar’s tea birthday celebration when put next.”—Financial Times

The Romanovs had been probably the most a hit dynasty of up to date instances, ruling a 6th of the arena’s floor for 3 centuries. How did one circle of relatives flip a conflict-ruined principality into the arena’s largest empire? And the way did they lose all of it?
 
This is the intimate tale of twenty tsars and tsarinas, a few touched via genius, a few via insanity, however all impressed via holy autocracy and imperial ambition. Simon Sebag Montefiore’s gripping chronicle unearths their mystery global of limitless energy and ruthless empire-development, overshadowed via palace conspiracy, circle of relatives rivalries, sexual decadence, and wild extravagance.
 
Drawing on new archival analysis, Montefiore provides a charming epic of triumph and tragedy, love and homicide, that may be each a common observe of energy and a portrait of empire that is helping outline Russia as of late.
