Am 13. April 1927 geht Allene Tew im Hafen von New York an Bord der Mauretania. Sie lässt ein Leben hinter sich, das ihr alles geschenkt hatte, wovon sie als junges Mädchen vom Land träumte: Wohlstand, Ansehen, Mutterglück und die Liebe ihres Lebens. Fast alles hat sie wieder verloren. Doch an diesem Tag bricht sie auf in eine neue Welt. In Europa wartet auf sie ein neuer Ehemann, eine Zukunft als echte Prinzessin, russische Gräfin und Patentante von Königin Beatrix.
"Die amerikanische Prinzessin" ist die Rekonstruktion eines faszinierenden Lebens vor dem Panorama von zwei Weltkriegen, Bankenkrach und Revolution. Vor allem aber ist es die bewegende Geschichte einer außergewöhnlichen Frau, die den Mut hat, ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen bis zum bitteren Ende.

5.0 out of 5 stars Een bijzonder boek over een bijzondere vrouw

Het leven van de hoofdpersoon voert als een rode draad door de wereldgeschiedenis rond de beide wereldoorlogen. Tot ik dit boek las wist ik niet wat een bijzondere vrouw deze Allene was.

3.0 out of 5 stars Such bizarre use of the Dutch language!
Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019
Loved the story but hated her out-of-breath rambling and often bizarre use of the Dutch language, full of misplaced colloquialisms, convoluted sentences and bad translations. That’s why I only give 3 stars.

interessant en leuk leesbaar boek met veel (semi?)historische feiten. Stukje geschiedenis over land en over mensen. Prettig en goed leesbaar geschreven.
