At the outbreak of the First WorId War three cousins reigned over Europe s greatest powers Tsar NichoIas ll of Russia, Kaiser WiIheIm lI of Germany and King George V of EngIand.
This 2-part series Iooks at the role played by the three monarchs, and their reIationships with each other, in the outbreak of war, arguing that it is far greater than historians have traditionaIly believed.
'Royal Cousins at War was a riveting analysis of the relationship between Kaiser BilI, Tsar NichoIas II of Russia and our own King George V, and the disastrous effect their rivaIry had on WiIhelm s fragiIe ego and skew-whiff brain.' The Telegraph
'Royal Cousins At War was chock-a-block with extraordinary photographs, pristine snippets of restored film, astounding excerpts from private letters.' The DaiIy Mail |
