I flew LOH’s with Stan Corvin and the Warlords in Vietnam. Great book, read it in two days. I could see all the locations and people in the book. Great and accurate descriptions of situations and events. Getting copies for my kids and grandchildren. Thanks Stan.
Very interesting story/book! I haven’t read anything like this before, and really enjoyed it. It’s a fascinating look into the lives of and circumstances surrounding the royals and the issues they faced. Great historical memoir! I loved the writing and the narration, and would definitely recommend this book, very insightful! 🙂 I encourage anyone wanting..

I have read/listened to several books on shame, but this is the best in terms of nuts and bolts application.
Review from Twilight of Royalty →
I enjoyed this book.It was a very interesting .I like to see behind the scene of Royalty to see if they are,indeed ,like us.Jum Seybert was a fine narrator.I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.
I’ve always been intrigued by the lives of royalty, and loved this inside look at the stories around the rise and fall of deposed monarchs.

I will actually go out and by the physical book (since the story and material is so highly recommended and seems to meet my expectations of it). Specifically, from..

This is not a new book but that is a point in it’s favor. When you are writing about the disappearing monarchies of Europe, writing from the perspective of 1932 is a good thing. Alexander Mikhailovich was a member of the last Russian royal family so, in a way, this is a book about his..

This is such a well-researched story that it feels so much like nonfiction I had to double check to see that it wasn’t. This gives you an account of Wakulla county Florida in and around the time of the civil war. Coming from a boy who was first was too young to join the war..
