Memoirs of the man who killed Rasputin

Prince Youssoupoff...is perfectly objective, remarkably modest, and as accurate as human fallibility allows. His book is therefore readable, of historical value, and intimately tragic. It is as if Count Fersen had written a detailed account of the last years of Marie Antoinette.

- Harold Nicholson, The Observer.

Born to great riches, master of vast feudal estates and many palaces, Felix Youssoupoff led the life of a grand lord in the days before the Russian Revolution. Married to a niece of Czar Nicholas II, he could observe at close range the rampant corruption and intrigues of the imperial court, which culminated in the rise to power of the sinister monk Rasputin. Finally, impelled by patriotism and his love for the Romanoff dynasty, which he felt was in danger of destroying itself and Russia, he killed Rasputin in 1916 with the help of the Grand Duke Dimitri and others.
