Nicholas Romanov: Life and Death

description:

A photo-biography of Nicholas II.

unique features:

The only photo-biography to focus primarily on Nicholas, particularly as emperor rather than family man.

similar to:

Nicholas II: The Imperial Family
Nikolai II

in my opinion:

Certainly a nice book with some unique photos, but not essential, especially in relation to the prices it commands outside Russia.
