Mark Steinberg and Vladimir Khrustalev,

The Fall of the Romanovs (New Haven, Conn.: Yale University Press, 1995). A useful collection of documents including letters between Nicholas and Alexandra, parts of their diaries, minutes of government meetings, and other official papers .

John F. O’Conor,

The Sokolov Investigation (New York: Robert Speller & Sons, 1971). Includes translations of sections of Sokolov’s report, along with a harshly critical commentary .

Anthony Summers and Tom Mangold,

The File on the Tsar (New York: Harper & Row, 1976). An impressive investigation of the investigator, even though the discovery of the Romanov bones ultimately disproved the Summers-Mangold theory .

Anastasia (Boston: Little, Brown, 1983). An entertaining albeit overly credulous investigation of Anna Anderson .

Edvard Radzinsky,

The Last Tsar,

trans. from the Russian by Marian Schwartz (New York: Doubleday, 1992). Radzinsky is a prominent Russian playwright, and that’s both the book’s strength and its weakness. As literature, it’s engrossing and evocative; as history, it’s frustratingly vague and undocumented .
