Description
As a child, I was drawn to an old sepia-toned photograph taken in Russia that stood proudly on my great-grandmother's shelf. The Cabinet Portrait showed her as a stunning young brunette propping up her infant daughter on a four legged stand. It was my first clue that another world preceded mine, and the image of my great grandmother and grandmother living a different reality ignited within me a lifetime desire to learn every detail of their past ... My curiosity only heightened when I discovered that there was almost nothing published about this time period. As a young newlywed contemplating my own future, I could not help but wonder. Where was this mysterious place on the other side of the earth, where my grandmother's world began and then so abruptly fell apart? Book jacket.
