Danny Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 (edited) Out of curiosity, would he be of the same family as the late Tsar Nicholas II? Another great place to find Russian books is at this website: http://www.uuu.ru. Use a translation service. They have tons of books and they speak english. I have ordered from them in the past.

Stogieman Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Impressive selection of references..... as with all these things, collector interest and they will print it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete A Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Thanks, George. I went and bought the book. Not much of a picture reference (on details, otherwise the pictures look good), but the text seems to be very extensive and intresting. Looks like money well spent.Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
