Ebook Rasputin

Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin (1869–1916) was a Russian mystic and holy man famous for his familiarity with the family of Tsar Nicholas II. He was a controversial character, viewed by some as a mystic, visionary, and prophet, and by others as a religious charlatan. Nonetheless, he garnered significant influence in late imperial Russia. He was assassinated by a group of conservative noblemen who opposed his influence over the Tsars in 1916. First published as Rasputin the Rascal Monk in 1917, writer and journalist William Le Queux's book is a comprehensive study of Rasputin and his influence over the Russian royal family during the latter years of the Romanov Dynasty. Includes images of Rasputin.
