322 pages of text (English), photographs, and annotations of Gavriil Konstantinovich witnessing 3 Revolutions, and his combat involvement in World War I with Germany, the abdication of Nicholas II, and the murder of Rasputin. Especially poignant is his relationship with his father, GD Konstantin Konstantinovich ("K.R."), his life with his mistress and later wife, Antonina Rafailovna, his arrest, imprisonment, and eventual escape from Russia to Finland. There are many details of his dealings with other members of the Romanoff Family - their good and bad qualities.
