Hooray! It’s here! The latest addition to my royal library is entitled “King, Kaiser, Tsar: Three Royal Cousins Who Led the World to War”. I can’t wait to dive right into this and then bring you a review. It looks like it’s going to be fascinating.

The subjects of the book:

King George V: The son of King Edward VII, who was the brother of the Prussian Empress Friedrich. George’s mother, Queen Alexandra, was born a Danish princess and was the sister of the Empress of Russia.

Kaiser Wilhelm II: Son of Empress Friedrich of Prussia (Princess Victoria of Great Britain), and grandson of Queen Victoria.

Tsar Nicholas II: Son of Tsar Alexander and Tsarina Maria Feodorovna, formerly Princess Dagmar of Denmark and sister of Britain’s Queen Alexandra.
