One of the first biographies, published soon after the fantastic murder of Rasputin, this important work was compiled from Russian printed sources, including both moderate and radical newpapers. The author reviews Rasputin's strange personality and rise to power, his political influence, and the plots that gathered around him until his death. While many facts are still disputed, this book remains that best guide to what was said and printed about Rasputin in his own time.
