Reviews
'Ony {Hughes} ... could have written such a wide-ranging, scholarly and captivating distillation of the entire history of the Romanov family. The book is enlivened at all points by discussions of painting, architecture, and statuary; Hughes's command of detail is stunning.' David Saunders, School of Historical Studies, Newcastle University, "a history achieved with consummate skill...an illuminating and admirably balanced narrative account" Reviewed in Literary Review, 2008, "The author is interested in the camera as a narrator that guides spectators to judgment and engages their sensory apparatus and capacity for affect in reshaping what might otherwise by abstract and rational judgment....Stadler interprets several films, doing especially well with David Lynch's enigmatic Lost Highway, which unsettles notions of narrative genre, identity, and morality. SUMMING UP: Recommended." - Choice, 'More than a testimony to Hughes' remarkable spirit, this is the best book in English on the subject, illuminated by a deep knowledge of Russia's imperial past, wide in scope yet admirable in its concision, and infused with a subtlety of interpretation free of the overheated, romantic treatment that has clouded most previous accounts.' Douglas Smith, The Times Literary Supplement, July 2008., "Vivid portrait of the entire Romanov family, who shaped Russian history and politics so pwerfully" Bookseller Buyers Guide,1 January 2008, &"The author is interested in the camera as a narrator that guides spectators to judgment and engages their sensory apparatus and capacity for affect in reshaping what might otherwise by abstract and rational judgment....Stadler interprets several films, doing especially well with David Lynch's enigmatic Lost Highway, which unsettles notions of narrative genre, identity, and morality.

  • Romanovs by Lindsey Hughes (2008, Hardcover)

    I read everything I can concerning the Romanovs especially the Last Tsar and his family. This caught my eye and I was glad I purchased it. The price was great and the delivery and service was excellent. Will definitely come back to this seller's website to see what else is available. Thanks again.
