But were these the bones of the Romanovs? And if these were their remains, where were the bones of the two younger Romanovs supposedly murdered with the rest of the family? Was Anna Anderson, celebrated for more than sixty years in newspapers, books, and film, really Grand Duchess Anastasia? "The Romanovs" provides the answers, describing in suspenseful detail the dramatic efforts to discover the truth. The author presents a colorful panorama of contemporary characters, illuminating the major scientific dispute between Russian experts and a team of Americans, whose findings, along with those of DNA scientists from Russia, America, and Great Britain, all contributed to solving one of the great mysteries of the twentieth century. 600 00 $a Nicholas $b II, $c Emperor of Russia, $d 1868-1918 $x Assassination. 600 00 $a Nicholas $b II, $c Emperor of Russia, $d 1868-1918 $x Family. 651 0 $a Russia $x History $y Nicholas II, 1894-1917. 650 0 $a Forensic osteology $z Russia. 650 0 $a Pretenders to the throne $z Russia. 941 $a 1 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110040428.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5EC4FBB828FB11E49E7A85DBDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
