Description

Rasputin – the last word by Edward Radzinsky includes 683 pages. Grigory Rasputin, a Russian peasant, semi-literate monk and mystic exercised a lot of power over Nicholas and Alexandra, the last tsar and tsarina of Russia.
His drunkenness, sexual habits of excess and nepotism, and also gossip that he was a German agent – all this led to his murder in December 1916.
The biography of Rasputin is the first one to draw upon relevant sources unavailable to previous historians. Edward Radzinsky reveals the emotional bond between Rasputin and the tsarina and demonstrates Rasputin’s power over the tsar.
“In this outstanding biography, Edward Radzinsky, an expert on the strange, twilight world of Russian high society in the last days of empire, creates the living Rasputin…a compulsive and definitive biography.” – Sunday Times.
