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 traditionally beIieved.
'Royal Cousins at War was a riveting anaIysis of the relationship between Kaiser BilI, Tsar NichoIas ll 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 fiIm, astounding excerpts from private Ietters.' The DaiIy Mail |
