Summary: Review For "Anastasia :The Lost Princess"
Comment: Lovell must of had the best intentions, but this book is a supporter for the impostor. Anna Anderson Manahan was not the Grand Duchess, she was Franzika Shankowvska of Poland. HIH Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikoaievna died with her family in Siberia. DNA testing has proven that Anastasia Manahan aka Anna Anderson was not Anastasia but Franzika, but Lovell refused to exept this fact. I think the fact that she originally thought she was Grand Duchess Tatiana was a clue and that she could not speak Russian becouse Anastasia Romanov spoke it about 99.9% of the time. Lovell had a gullible brain as Anna's was deranged and a criminal. This book is a disgrace to modern science.

Summary: The Lost Princess Who Was Found...
Comment: Astounding! Whether the true story of the Last Grand Duchess Anastsia, or yet the account of a very confused woman who only believed to be her, Anna Anderson is sure to show us all the epitome of courage. It's the tale of a woman not only surviving life's challenges, but beginning a whole new life for herself as an adult. The whole story is simply amazing, it true or not. I, myself, even with the DNA test and the so called "facts" that Anastasia, Grand Duchess of Russia died in the cellar with her family in the early morning of July 17, 1917, I still can not make myself believe this woman was definitely not the Grand Duchess. I have studied the Romanovs for many years now, and can still not come to conclude this was an ordinary woman on the streets. You can tell the face of old Anna Anderson in her hospital bed is the same face of youthful, seventeen year old Anastasia. That proves more than scientific study, which is not always is correct. You can't help but believe in her after reading this book. The way it is written is in such a tribute to the Grand Duchess herself, respecting her in everyway. Lovell is an astonishing author, more than I ever would have expected. The first pages immediately draw you into the world of the Romanovs, as a brillant page turner. From the days the family stayed captive at Exaterinburg, to Anna Anderson's healing in the German wards, to the old woman you grow to care about in Unterlengenhardt, you will not be able to put this book down. What proves to be even more grasping is the odd little-known facts it tells of the Romanovs, whether they are real or yet just a heap of rumors.
I must admit, it went on quite a bit about Ms. de Graff at the end, almost too much, when Anna Anderson's days where over. Yet despite this is it a truly a splendid novel, engaging and sympatheic for a rare, strong person only looking for acceptance, but more important looking to accept herself. This is the story of a lost princess who really wasn't lost at all.

Summary: Amusing...
Comment: It's quite hilarious, what people will believe. I do not see why people contradict the DNA evidence and the fact that Anna Anderson didn't look at all like the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna. It's quite pathetic, this woman, a psychopath who grew into her role as the "lost grand duchess". There needs to be a better memoriam to the girl, not the crazy woman who said she was she. It's absolutely laughable, all the things he says in this book. It reads more like a tabloid, what with a secret fifth daughter and all this other junk.
