520 $aThe compelling story of the woman credited as a major factor in the destruction of the Russian Empire. The first full-scale biography of Alexandra in thirty years, it is the first to fully explore her childhood motivations and influences. Just six years of age when her mother died, Alexandra, a princess of Hesse-Darmstadt, a German principality, was reared under the tutelage of various aunts but always remained under the watchful if faraway eye of her grandmother, Queen Victoria. As a shy, unsophisticated teenager, "Alix" visited St. Petersburg, Russia, for a six-week holiday and caught the eye of Nicholas, the young heir to the Russian throne. They might have lived ever after as a happily married bourgeois couple, but the fates soon placed them on the throne and they were on a collision course with tragedy. Based on hundreds of letters (many hitherto unpublished), diaries, and documents, as well as the author's own research in Russia, Germany, England, and America, The last empress presents an insightful account of this important woman's life, including her dominant political role and her dependence on the infamous Rasputin.
