Sommario/riassunto

Based on material from Russian archives, this is the biography of Nicholas Mikhailovich Romanov (1859-1919), the only intellectual in the Russian Imperial Family. This study provides insight into the last six decades of tsarist Russia through the experiences of the ""oddball"" member of the clan.
