The tragic, compelling story of the last Tsar and his family
Synopsis
Nicholas & Alexandra is the internationally famous biography from Pulitzer prize-winner Robert Massie. Massie shows conclusively how the personal curse of the young heir's haemophilia, and the decisive influence it brought Rasputin, became fatally linked with the collapse of Imperial Russia. As an engrossing account of one of the century's most dramatic episodes - and an intimate portrait of two people caught at the centre of a maelstrom - Nicholas & Alexandra is unlikely ever to be surpassed. 'The story of the last Tsar has probably never been so powerfully - and so accurately - told' Guardian

Das ist nun mein drittes Buch, das ich vom Autor Robert K. Massie lese. (Zuerst Peter, der Große, dann Katharina, die Große). Mich hat von Anfang an die Art des Schreibens des Autors gefangen genommen. Er schreibt mit viel Empathie und Wärme. Neben den privaten Einblicken ind das Leben zeigt er aber auch die gesamte historische Entwicklung, das Weltgeschehen in dieser Ära.Ein rundum gelungenes Buch, dass die Besonderheiten dieser Ära mit zeigt.Es hat - historisch bedingt - ein etwas anderes Flair als die vorhergehenden Bücher.Ich finde dieses Buch rundum gelungen - historisch korrekt, interessant. Ich empfehle es zu 100%.
This must be the definitive the definitive history of the last years of Tsarist Russia for the general reader. Robert K Massie's analysis of a complicated historical situation is sensitive,unbiassed and scholarly, and his gifts as a writer make this book very compelling reading. His handling and sifting of the vast amount of available material on the collapse of the Romanov family and the roots of the revolution is exemplary.
Für diejenigen die sich für Familie Romanov interessieren und für die russische Geschichte allgemein, kann ich dieses Buch nur empfehlen.
The story of the last of the Romanovs is one that still keeps audiences interested, whether the focus is the revolution or the Mad Monk. This is the last gasp of old style royalty that the 20th Century was to experience and despite Massie's tendency to somewhat romanticize his subjects, the domestic tribulations of Nicholas and Alexandra make an interesting and illustrative foil for the civil strife that was going on outside the palace. It is fascinating to read some of the anecdotes recounted in this book that show the Tsar and his family to be, in many ways, an ordinary family, yet at the same time probably the wealththiest family in the world at the time. The dispair and extreme poverty of Russian peasantry is very lightly treated here, but then, this is the Romanov's story and like royalty everywhere and at all times, they were isolated from direct confrontation with unpleasant sights and sounds.Whatever else, this is a great story - of love, family tragedy, political blundering, inepept military decisions, court intrigue, conspicuous consumption, religious meddling, hypocracy, self deception, and hope - all part of the opening act of the new century. The old world of Tsarist glitter passes and the new world of Bolshevik drabness begins - and Nicholas and Alexandra are, with their family, caught in the middle.
I last read this in 1996, but the book has stayed with me. Massie gives a moving insight into the life of the tragic figure Tsar Nikolai II, although he does not stray from the history of his reign. Nikolai was a man who did not want to be Tsar from the start, he had not been trained for the role of Tsar by his father Aleksandr II, and this was to be a major factor in his misunderstanding of his role and position in the Russian hierarchy.He was a weak man, dominated by his wife and followed the views and advice of the last minister he saw, proving that he was neither willing nor able for his chosen role.With excellent photographic evidence of the Tsar and Tsarina and family, Massie's account of his life is detailed and easy to read. If you want to find out about the structure of the Russian autocracy and Nikolai's life, then this book is worth the money.
Robert Massie's book is spellbinding. I've reread it a dozen times, and each time I haven't been able to put it down. He paints such a vivid picture of the Imperial family, the Russian people, Rasputin, and the terror and uncertainty of the Revolution and its aftermath that I find it difficult to believe he wasn't there.I'm especially taken by his description of the relationship between Nicholas and Alexandra. He loved her, respected her, and valued her advice; but he may have been wrong to do so. It may have been his fatal mistake. Superstitious, distrustful and pathologically shy, Alix of Hesse-Darmstadt was not cut out to be the consort of an autocrat. When disaster struck, as it did when Alexei's hemophilia was diagnosed, she made poor decisions and refused to listen to wiser counsel. She may not have been the sole or even the main trigger of the Revolution, but a stronger wife would have made Nicholas a stronger czar, able to fight the Bolsheviks and win. Alexandra merely gave the enemies of the Czar another reason for revolution.My only concern with this book is that Massie was born too early (or wrote the book too soon). We've learned a great deal in the past few years about the fate of the Romanovs and their last days at Yekaterinburg. Massie of course couldn't have known that the official story of the Imperial Family's death was a lie; a reasonable reader wouldn't expect him to. However, those who use _Nicholas and Alexandra_ as a historical text would profit from further reading.
