Alexei and Anastasia are so cute in many photos. I like the photos of them when they were small. Olga is my favorite grand duchess. I like her very much. I like the photos of her and Anastasia. My favorite is the one of Olga reading while, Anastasia was beside her. It seems she was trying to play another prank on Olga.
I'm glad you know more about the imperial family. It seems that other people are just interested in the survival claiments, rather than the imperial family...most of the people are in the Russian family board because of their interest mianly for Anna Anderson and Tammet. It is great to see the hundreds of photos of the Romanovs, and know people who really admire the life of the Romanovs, fully understanding the fact that the family never survived.
Thanks! I'm glad you like it. It's so cute to see photos of the Imperial family together. It makes me smile very much. I think Alexei looks so aborable in the sailor suit. In the movie Romanovy: Ventsenosnaya semya the whole family looks just like the actual imperial family. I loved this movie even though it was in Russian I still could understand a lot of things! It was much better than the Nicholas and Alexandra movie. I really didn't like it much, and the girls who played grand duchesses didn't look like OTMA to me. The movie had a lot of inaccurate things in it.
I sent a personal message to one of my friends here who lives on the West Coast, but she hasn't got back to me yet. Do you know anyone on the site who's from the West?
Since you like George VI, another excellent book is "A Spirit Undaunted". It deals with the King's role, particularly his relationship with Churchill during WWII. It's by Robert Rhodes James, who passed away shortly after this book was written.
