More about the book
Exploring the complex life of Gregory Rasputin, this biography reveals his transformation from an uneducated peasant in Siberia to a controversial figure in Russian history. Initially embraced for his healing abilities, particularly for the hemophiliac heir, Rasputin's unorthodox religious views and charismatic allure led to scandal and exploitation among the aristocracy. His influence over Empress Alexandra and involvement in political affairs ultimately made him a target, culminating in his assassination in 1916 amid accusations of corruption and moral decay.
