Beskrivning
THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'THE GOLD STANDARD OF NARRATIVE HISTORY' - DAN SNOWHOW COULD A BARELY LITERATE SIBERIAN PEASANT HAVE SUCH AN EFFECT ON THE FATE OF THE WORLD?Rasputin was a devoted monarchist, not a revolutionary. He held no official position and commanded no forces. Yet he contributed more to the fall of the Romanov dynasty than any other individual.For more than a century, the man himself has been obscured by myth; just as Rasputin cast a spell over the imperial family, his legend has bewitched writers and historians. Now it is essential to see him clearly at last, and to fully comprehend his part in the collapse of the greatest autocracy on Earth.

Recensioner i media

Beevor is one of our finest narrative historians, with sharp judgment, a sweet pen and a deep understanding of the world in which he works... [A] beautifully written, clear-eyed biography of a very Russian tragedy. Rasputin is a meditation on history as well as a masterclass in smooth, judicious prose
