DOWNLOAD PDF

This is a royal biography of two of Europe's most important female figures of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, two sisters born in Denmark in obscurity. Their beauty and effervescence marked them as special from early childhood. The eldest sister, Alexandra (Alix) became Queen Victoria's choice as the wife of her eldest son, the Prince of Wales (known as Bertie and later as King Edward VII). She was the most beautiful woman in Europe at that time and everything she did, women the world over copied. Her younger sister Dagmar, known in the family as Minnie, married the heir to the Russian Imperial throne and once as Empress of Russia she became the richest woman to ever live. This is a royal trilogy, three books covering the brilliant lives of these two women and their extended families in Great Britain, Russia, Denmark, Greece and Germany. The series is full of scandal, sex, love, wealth, power, pageantry, glamor and revolution. It is of the same time period as Downton Abbey it is a real story in every respect (but the author intentionally wrote it to read as much as possible as a novel). ALIX & MINNIE Book Two, (Adventure, Wealth, Power and Scandal) delves into the lives of the women’s growing family; Minnie becomes Empress and after eleven years, Dowager Empress with the death of her beloved Sasha (Tsar Alexander III); Alix suffers humiliation after humiliation because of Bertie’s serial philandering; and Queen Victoria continues to keep Alix from enjoying the great love of the British people, which has grown each year since her arrival in England. Scandals, assassinations and disappointments reign but glamor and pageantry increases as well, especially with Minnie in Russia.
