ALMEDINGEN, E. M., London, 1964

The author was a Russian émigré who knew several people who were close to St Elizabeth. She was a popular historian and the book is reliable and engrossing. However Almedingen was not especially close to the Orthodox Church and this occasionally shows. Note that the subtitle gives the Saint’s name in her married court form. Again, this book can still be easily bought.
