Acerca de esta escucha

From the best-selling author of Stalin and The Last Tsar comes The Rasputin File, a remarkable biography of the mystical monk and bizarre philanderer whose role in the demise of the Romanovs and the start of the revolution can only now be fully known.

For almost a century, historians could only speculate about the role Grigory Rasputin played in the downfall of tsarist Russia. But in 1995 a lost file from the state archives turned up, a file that contained the complete interrogations of Rasputin's inner circle.

With this extensive and explicit amplification of the historical record, Edvard Radzinsky has written a definitive biography, reconstructing in full the fascinating life of an improbable holy man who changed the course of Russian history.

Translated from the Russian by Judson Rosengrant.

I am so glad I now know this true history and for the author’s efforts to bring out truth. His favorite phrase is “semi-illiterate peasant”. I am sad for such evil on our beautiful full world. How much wickedness can be brought about by one man, over and over. Jesus Christ is the answer, but beware of wolves in sheep clothing.

Incredible Story of a previously mysterious man

Incredibly lengthy but extremely informative. 24hrs of audio so strap in, but I listened at work over the course of a week and the narration was great. Soothing and steady voice-work. I recommend to those with genuine historical curiosity and of course, a fair bit of patience!

Long but Strong

If you give up reading you will miss a great Russian writer. This is a well founded book built on great research and intuition. If I gave it five stars I'd scare people away. Try this book I'm going to read Stalin by the same author.

Don't give up

I read several works of Radzinsky years ago. First of all, he is very serious about what he does, his research, his writing. He is absolutely great describing the history of his own country and that is his absolute advantage. Going back to his books is an absolute pleasure as well as a great learning process.

Good old Radzinsky

It was a pretty good book overall. There’s lots of details and substantiated data. The book covers a wide range of acquaintances along with scarcely known facts. It also covers the most important parts of Rasputin’s life and submerges the reader in a time period of 100 years ago.
However, the reader should beware and be prepared for the author’s excessive explanations and justifications for Rasputin’s behavior. It’s extremely speculative and without any substantiation. Clearly he wants to redeem Rasputin and tell us he’s not so bad. But that’s his opinion which is find. It’s just that I bought the book for its factual information and could have done without the speculation.
Overall it’s interesting and well detailed. Very enjoyable.

Too much speculation for me

I always wonder the true, logical, and not muddy story of rasputin. this is a great historical book with answers for those who wish to know

The false witch

I knew nothing about this pre-Lennon figure except his name. I knew there was mystery surrounding his existance and his importance in making state decisions in old Czarist Russia. But I had no idea to what level he had risen. The book is well written, on the level of David McCullough and Walter Isaacson, logical, and engaging. A great read about a figure hidden in twentieth century history. I am so glad I listened to this (twice).

Spectacular view of obscure history
