From One Of Our Most Acclaimed Historians, A Major New Biography Of One Of HistoryS Most Disturbing, Dubious Masterminds, Showing How A Siberian Peasant, Through His Seduction Of The Imperial Household, Contributed To The Collapse Of The Greatest Autocracy In The Worldwhen RussiaS Dowager Empress Was Pregnant With The Future Tsar, She Dreamed That A Peasant Would One Day Kill Her Son. The Idea Terrified Her, And For The Rest Of Her Days She Lived Under The Pressure Of The Prophecy. Did The Prophecy Come True With The Arrival At Court Of A Mysterious, Barely Literate Moujhik From Siberia, Grigori Rasputin?In This Extraordinary Portrait Of An Enigmatic Character, Antony Beevor Brings Readers Closer Than Ever Before To RasputinS Scandalous Life And Death. Though He Had No Official Position At Court, RasputinS Hold Over The Romanovs Became The Stuff Of Legend. Exaggerated Accounts Of Political And Financial Corruption Swirled Around Him, To Say Nothing Of The Stories Of His Debauchery With The Empress And Even Her Daughters. The Consequences Of The Rumor And Conspiracy Theories Were DevastatingWhen The February Revolution Broke Out In 1917, Hardly A Sword Was Raised In The TsarS Defense.Through Extensive Use Of Previously Unpublished Reports, Interviews, And Interrogations, Beevor Shows The Truth Of RasputinS Rampant Lust And Opportunism, Victimization Of Poor And Vulnerable Women, And Deep Hypocrisy And Corruption. Part Political Thriller, Part Gothic Mystery, Rasputin Is A Fascinating Story Of Human Perversity.
