Description & Specifications

On July 17, 1918, four young women descended into the basement of a house in Ekaterinburg. The eldest was twenty-two and the youngest only seventeen. Along with their parents and thirteen-year-old brother, they all met a horrific death. Their crime: being the daughters of the last tsar and tsarina of all Russia. In the book "Four Sisters," renowned biographer Helen Rappaport offers readers the most reliable account of the Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, and Anastasia. Drawing on their letters and diaries, she illuminates their lives during the final days of the Romanov dynasty. We see, almost for the first time, their journey from childhood with immense privileges to a simple and sheltered life, until adulthood - their first romantic loves, their hopes and dreams, the difficulty of living with a mother who was chronically ill and their hemophiliac brother, and, later, the trauma of the revolution and its terrifying consequences. Moving and meticulously researched, "Four Sisters" gives voice to these young women and allows their story to resonate with readers almost a century after their death.
