1590 The Hunt for the Czar, by Guy Richards (read 16 Oct 1980) This is a slipshod book, but it is a fascinating subject so I am glad I read the book. The thesis of this book is that the entire Romanov family escaped from Ekinterinberg! It is speculative, but the research is interesting. The book seriously contends the Tsarevich Alexei became a spy and defected to the West in 1962, being known as Michael Goleneuiski. I wish the book was more scholarly--but it is put together as a sensational story only. This book is a hodge-podge. Volume 29 of the National Cyclopedia of American Biography has a biography of William Rutledge McGarry--who supposedly wrote Rescuing the Czar, a rare book only six known copies of which exist. The 1926-27 Who's Who in America also has his biography and lists him as author of the book. ( )
