This excellent book, authored by Galina Korneva and Tatiana Cheboksarova, includes nearly 600 photos, an overwhelming majority among them collected from the main archives of Russia and several European countries. The moment captured by these original photos is able, often times, to tell the reader far more about the unique world of royalty and aristocracy than countless pages of text. The authors relied on important information obtained from Russian and foreign periodicals, memoirs, and scientific literature. The English-language version of this book was expanded with contributions written by Arturo Beéche, the founder of Eurohistory and publisher of Eurohistory (
The European Royal History Journal). Mr Beéche is an expert on European Royalty, as well as author of more than a dozen books about the various royal families that have shaped the continent's history.
The biography of King Michael of Romania, a heroic monarch who led his country through perilous times, only to be betrayed, forced to abdicate, and destined to a life in exile. This book was published as a commemorative for the King's 80th birthday in 2001.
The first-ever biography of Portugal's controversial Queen Maria Pia, wife of King Luis, mother of assassinated King Carlos. Using previously unused sources, as well as the famed Queen's correspondence, the author managed to reconstruct the life of a strong woman who had a terribly difficult life in a kingdom where she arrived as a teen bride. A Savoy princess by birth, Maria Pia dedicated her life to the needs of her adopted country, Portugal.

This circumstance could have saved his life. Instead, when he was requested by the Bolsheviks to denounce his father, Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich of Russia, young Prince Vladimir chose love, loyalty, honor, and affection. His only crime was being related to a dynasty of which he had not even been an official member. This is the compelling story of a young man, and a talented poet, who in different circumstances would have attained great heights. Destiny, however, played a sad role in bringing a brutal and early death to a promising life.
