Endorsements of Coryne’s writing

“This is a judiciously admiring tribute to a tough, resourceful and engaging woman.”
The Spectator

“This book is a very enjoyable and entertaining read. I wanted to know more about this woman … and this book fills the void. It provides you with a lot of information about Marie’s life. I have more respect for this woman than I did before. She had her faults – she was human – But what she did before, during and after her reign as Empress of Russia is truly amazing.”

“Mathilde Kschessinska had a very long and interesting life, which was filled with drama and intrigue. Coryne Hall’s well written biography adds much new information to what is already known about this exceptional woman.” (Imperial Dancer)
