This set of paper dolls are wonderful. With beautiful clothes full of detail it is easy to relive the life of the ill-fated Romanovs. The set includes the Tsar Nichols and the Tsaritsa Alexandra. There is a younger verison of the two (when they were married) and an older version of the two. Also there are the beautiful Grand Duchesses Olga,Tatiana,Marie, and Anastasia. Also the tsarvitch is included.With easy to understand and informative notes I highly recommend this book to paper doll lovers or people who are fans of the Romanovs.

This was a very good paper doll book. I reccomend it.It includes the tsar and tsaritsa at two different ages,their children,Olga,Tatiana(I like her best),Marie,and Anastasia,and hemophilia-stricken Alexei,as well as two attendants.There is only one problem:Olga and Marie were blonds,NOT brunettes.However these are fun and my sister and I fight over Alexandra!Do not give these to little children.If you cut them out,I have found that the book cover makes a good house for them to live in!

How does Mr. Tierney do it? I have yet to be disappointed with ANY of the collections of paper dolls that he has illustrated, and this one is no different. He has captured the nobility of the doomed Tsar, and the regal beauty of his Tsarina. He has not neglected any detail in costume and brings these tragic figures to life again in this collection. A must for history buffs, fashion afficianadoes and those who love well done paper dolls.

This was a beautifully drawn and colored book and had excellent colors and selections!It was fun to cut out to!!I recommend this book to any one who likes the Romanovs or OTMA!!

This book was wonderful! It has in it:the tsar and tsaritsa,wedding clothes,coronation costumes,matching fur-trimmed outfits,the tsar and tsaritsa again (older),traditional Russian clothes,an opera gown,traveling clothes,their 5 children,court costumes for the latter,traveling clothes for the girls,and two strange-looking attendants. The best was the girls. I agree with a fellow reviewer of this book that Olga and Marie were blonds. All in all,this a great book. Buy it,by all means,BUY IT!!!!!!!!!
