Extravagant and eccentric, Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich (1779-1831) did not resemble an heir of the Russian throne. The son of the murdered Pavel I and brother of Alexander I, he had been dreaming of a private life and refused an emperor’s crown even when the whole Russia swore allegiance to him. In a vivid and fascinating way the book describes life of one of the most peculiar members of the Romanovs.
