Recollections of Imperial Russia (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book takes us on a journey to Imperial Russia before the Great War through the eyes of a young girl. Her observations on the court and society of that time reveal a world of unimaginable grandeur, yet shadowed by tales of brutality and superstition. The author takes the reader to magnificent balls and religious ceremonies, yet also exposes a dark side of Russia, where the threat of violence and oppression always looms over the people. Amid this splendor and darkness, the author doesn't fail to capture the resilience and spirit of the people, making this book not only a historical account, but also a poignant tale of human experience.
