THE GLITTERING LIVES AND LOVES OF THE TWO RUSSIAN EMPRESSES WHO SCANDALIZED THE WORLD AND MADE A NATION ...FASCINATING! - The Boston Globe -

"The Reigns of Elizabeth & Catherine are recreated in all their splendor in a time when history was made as frequently in bedrooms as on the battlefield . . ."
Imperial Russia is brought brilliantly to life in glittering mosaic of color, and the sagas of the most incredible rulers ever to perch on a throne are interwoven to present a story as action-packed, suspenseful, and scandalous as any best seller could hope to be . . .Filled wit hfacts that would be scoffed at in fiction, scintillating with portraits of a multitude of people as incredible as the Empresses themselves.
