Imperial Palaces of Russia

Summary: Stunning pictures, slim on information
Review: Michael of Greece has done a wonderful job of collecting photographs of some of St. Petersburg's most beautiful palaces. However, without the background of an Art or Architectural historian, the text is sorely lacking, and is, in fact riddled with errors and omissions. By the way, Your Highness, the last Palace in your book was built for the Belosselsky-Belozersky family -- for some reason you've chosen to call them the Beloseilsky-Belosievskys. Wrong.
