This blog is dedicated to the study of the life and reign of Emperor Nicholas II (1868-1918) of Russia. On 22nd January 2024, my blog marked a major milestone – the number of hits received over the last 5 years surpassed the 1 MILLION mark!
My blog currently features more than 950 full-length articles and news stories, researched and translated from Russian archival and media sources. In addition, my blog is richly illustrated with with more than 4,000 historic and contemporary photographs and 100s of videos.
It is my personal belief (and that of many others) that Russia’s last Emperor and Tsar has been unfairly treated by “academically lazy” historians and authors, who prefer to hold on to the popular negative assessment of Nicholas II, which existed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and allowed to germinate during the Soviet years to the present day.
Follow me on Facebook (updated daily) which currently has 5,000 friends plus an additional 3,500+ followers and browse my Romanov Bookshop on AMAZON featuring nearly 50 titles on Nicholas II, his family, the Romanov dynasty and the history of Imperial Russia.

My research is dedicated to clearing the name of Russia’s much slandered Tsar. Much of my research is based on newly released documents from Russian archival sources, as well as articles and news stories from Russian media source. These are then translated into English, providing new facts and information to English audiences around the world for the very first time.
In addition, my research continues to debunk many of the myths and lies which have existed for more than a century after Nicholas II’s death and martyrdom on 17th July 1918.
In exchange for this 18-page booklet, please consider making a small $5 or $10 donation in aid of my research. These donations are of great assistance in helping me offset the cost of obtaining and translating documents from Russian archival sources, which are often paid for out of my own pocket.
Please note, that there is NO obligation, thank you for your consideration!
