Reviews

Rappaport is insightful in her analysis of Alexandra's vulnerability [and] illuminates the precise influence of Grigori Rasputin . . . An astoundingly intimate tale of domestic life lived in the crucible of power.
[Rappaport] brings to Four Sisters an encyclopedic knowledge of the minutiae of Nicholas and Alexandra's family life . . . Four Sisters is a study in unity. It demonstrates resoundingly the strength of family ties.
A well-written gem . . . a fascinating, in-depth and comprehensively researched study of the imperial daughters.
Evocative and beautifully researched and told, this is narrative history at its best.
