Praise for The Court of the Last Tsar'Any book by Greg King is a book to be kept and savored. He has not only given us a fresh, clear-eyed, and often startling new look at the life of the last Romanovs, but also lived up to the promise of his title. He has shown us how the whole enterprise worked, from Tsar Nicholas to his lowest cook and chambermaid. This book is a great work of scholarship-and a wonderful read.'-Peter Kurth, author of Tsar: The Lost World of Nicholas and Alexandra and Anasta
