Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. On 17 July 1918, four young women walked down twenty-three steps into the cellar of a house in Ekaterinburg. The eldest was twenty-two, the youngest only seventeen. Together with their parents and their thirteen-year-old brother, they were all brutally murdered. Their crime: to be the daughters of the last Tsar and Tsaritsa of All the Russias. Much has been written about Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra and their tragic fate, as it has about the Russian Revolutions of 1917, but little attention has been paid to the Romanov princesses, who perhaps inevitably have been seen as minor players in the drama. In Four Sisters, however, acclaimed biographer Helen Rappaport puts them centre stage and offers readers the most authoritative account yet of the Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia. Drawing on their own letters and diaries and other hitherto unexamined primary sources, she paints a vivid picture of their lives in the dying days of the Romanov dynasty. We see, almost for the first time, their journey from a childhood of enormous privilege, throughout which they led a very sheltered and largely simple life, to young womanhood their first romantic crushes, their hopes and dreams, the difficulty of coping with a mother who was a chronic invalid and a haeomophiliac brother, and, latterly, the trauma of the revolution and its terrible consequences. Compellingly readable, meticulously researched and deeply moving, Four Sisters gives these young women a voice, and allows their story to resonate for readers almost a century after their death. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

. . . 1 Vol. . 475 pp. Cuarto Mayor. Rústica. . Buen estado de conservación. Atrapados en la Revolución rusa, 1917, es el magistral relato de Helen Rappaport sobre el estallido de la Revolución Rusa a través de testimonios directos dejados por ciudadanos extranjeros que vieron el drama en primera persona. Entre el primer estallido de febrero de 1917 y el golpe bolchevique de Lenin en octubre, Petrogrado (el antiguo San Petersburgo) estaba en plena ebullición, sentida con especial intensidad en la gran avenida, Nevsky Prospekt. Allí, los visitantes extranjeros que llenaban hoteles, clubes, oficinas y embajadas eran muy conscientes del caos que brotaba fuera de sus puertas y debajo de sus ventanas. Entre este variopinto grupo estaban periodistas, diplomáticos, hombres de negocios, banqueros, institutrices, enfermeras voluntarias y socialistas expatriados. Muchos guardaban diarios y escribían cartas a casa: desde una enfermera inglesa que ya había sobrevivido al hundimiento del Titanic, al ayudante de cámara afroamericano del embajador de los Estados Unidos, a la líder del movimiento sufragista Emmeline Pankhurst, que había venido a Petrogrado para inspeccionar el indomable Batallón de la Muerte -formado íntegramente por mujeres- dirigido por Maria Bochkareva. La autora del bestseller Las hermanas Romanov se basa en este valioso material, en gran parte inédito, para llevarnos hasta la acción: poder ver, sentir y oír la Revolución como les sucedió a un grupo de personas que, de repente, se sintieron atrapados en un Petrogrado convulso. "Una crónica de la Revolución Rusa, aguda, vívida y profundamente investigada contada a través de los ojos de un sorprendente y extravagante grupo de extranjeros en Petrogrado, magníficamente narrada por Helen Rappaport". -Simon Sebag Montefiore, autor de Los Romanovs. Helen Rappaport (Bromley, 1947) es una reputada especialista en historia de Rusia y la Inglaterra victoriana. Tras estudiar en la Chatham Grammar School for Girls, cursó estudios rusos en la Universidad de Leeds. Entre 1999 y 2003 escribió obras notables como Joseph Stalin: A Biographical Companion. Su primer gran éxito llegó con su obra No Place for Ladies: The Untold Story of Women in the Crimean War (2007), seguida por Ekaterinburg: The Last Days of the Romanovs (2008), obras que situaron a Helen Rappaport como gran especialista de la historia rusa, lo que confirmó su obra Conspirator: Lenin in Exile (2009). Su último libro, Las hermanas Romanov (Taurus, 2015), único de sus títulos publicado en castellano, ha sido un gran éxito de ventas en varios países. También ha participado en numerosos programas de radio y televisión, además de ser asesora en documentales en la BBC2 y traductora de las obras teatrales de A. Chéjov.
