Like the fingers on a hand--first headstrong Olga, then Tatiana the tallest, Maria most hopeful for a ring, and Anastasia the smallest. These are the daughters of Tsar Nicholas II, grand duchesses living a life steeped in tradition and privilege. They are young women each on the brink of starting her own life. The summer of 1914 is that precious last wink of time when they can still be sisters together--who link arms and laugh, sisters who share their dreams and worries, and who flirt with the officers of their imperial yacht.\u003cbr\u003e But in a gunshot the future changes--for these sisters and for Russia.\u003cbr\u003e As World War I ignites across Europe, political unrest sweeps Russia. First dissent, then disorder, mutiny--and revolution. For Olga, Tatiana, Maria, and Anastasia, the end of their girlhood collides with the end of more than they ever imagined.\u003cbr\u003e At the same time hopeful and hopeless, na ve and wise, the voices of these sisters become a chorus singing the final song of this great empire. Impeccably researched and utterly fascinating, acclaimed author Sarah Miller recounts the final days of Imperial Russia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/10\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416983415\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e145378 \/ Lost Crown\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.6 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 16\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Sarah Miller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43059805978805,"sku":"9781416983415","price":11.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_f23ace38-4458-48b6-a62a-5cd29592d96e.jpg?v=1690298609","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-lost-crown-9781416983415","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
