Hidden Treasures of the Romanovs: Saving the Royal Jewels

Evelyn Clarke

This is the story of Albert Henry Stopford, Edwardian man-about-town, member of the English aristocracy, dealer in object d’arts, and a regular guest at Romanov dinner tables.

In the turmoil of the Russian revolution he rescued Romanov jewels from the Vladimir Palace worth millions of pounds, from under Bolshevik noses, and took them back to Britain in his Gladstone bag.

‘a riveting account, highly recommended for all devotees of the Romanovs.’ – European Royal History Journal
