The Story Of Franziska Schanzkowsky

In 1927, a Berlin newspaper released an investigative report claiming to have discovered that Anna Anderson was actually Franziska Schanzkowska, a Polish factory worker.
A work of narrative nonfiction drawn from original documents (some never before translated into English) and interviews with the people who knew her, the book follows Franziska from the streets of Berlin to the castles of deposed royalty, from Jazz Age New York to Nazi Germany and beyond. It is a tale of mystique, madness, and one woman's determination to fool the world.
