"Grigory Rasputin: Holy Man or Mad Monk?" by Professor Norman Itzkowitz explores the enigmatic life of Rasputin, a mystic who gained significant influence in the Russian imperial court during the early 20th century. The book examines his rise from humble beginnings in Siberia to becoming a trusted confidant of the Romanov family, particularly Tsarina Alexandra. Itzkowitz delves into Rasputin's controversial practices, beliefs, and the political tension surrounding his presence in the court. The narrative uncovers the complexities of his character, prompting readers to question whether he was a genuine holy man or a malevolent figure contributing to the downfall of the Russian monarchy.
