History buffs, what do you like to study most?

He has a couple of them. His first, Nicholas and Alexandra, was the basis for the movie of the same name. He also has a great book about Peter the Great called, well, I think the title is obvious.

His final book about the Romanovs is a follow up to Nicholas and Alexandra. Along with the impostor stuff he writes extensively about the discovery of the Romanov bones and the DNA analysis that followed. It’s a very interesting read.

Well, I hope you are satisfied- I have now ordered it online. As if I need another book. :smack:

Would it be a bad time to point out Massie also wrote an excellent biography of Peter the Great?

And if you like Russian history, check out W. Bruce Lincoln. He wrote several good books on the revolutionary era.

As an update, before I actually ordered it online, my daughter phoned and said she had some QBD (Queensland Book Depot) gift vouchers for me. So I didn’t proceed with the online purchase.

I went to QBD today and they told me the book was unavailable- and has been- since 1996. Morons.

I have ordered it from Angus and Robertson and it is shipped within 12 days. Online.

Little Nemo,

I am interested in that time but it wasn’t until I read Dreadnought that I found such and interest in the books about that time (if that makes sense). I had Dreadnought for about ten years before I read it.
