Ekaterinburg

"Ekaterinburg: The Last Days of the Romanovs counts down to the last, tense hours of the family's lives, stripping away the over-romanticised versions of previous accounts. The story focuses on the family inside the Ipatiev House, capturing the oppressive atmosphere and the dynamics of a group - the Romanovs - their servants and guards - thrown together by extraordinary events." "Telling the story in a compellingly new and dramatic way, Ekaterinburg brings those final tragic days vividly alive against the backdrop of Russia in turmoil, on the brink of a devastating civil war."--BOOK JACKET.
