From the author of the New York Times bestselling The Mysterious Case of Rudolf Diesel comes the enthralling hidden history of one of the world's most successful business titans, a rival to the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds, whose legacy was erased in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution.

With the exception of the tsar, Emanuel Nobel was likely the wealthiest man in early twentieth-century Russia, and one of the wealthiest in the world. Over three generations, he and his family grew the Russian petroleum industry into a behemoth that surpassed even John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil. The Nobels imported the best practices from America and improved on them, transforming every aspect of the industry. Though Emanuel's uncle Alfred would become world famous thanks to his creation of the Nobel Prize, the even more successful Nobels in Russia have been largely forgotten. The reason why is one of history's most gripping untold stories.

Working in the oil fields of southern Russia at the same time as Emanuel was a troubled young man from a peasant family in Georgia. Though educated to be a priest, he took a different path when he discovered the revolutionary ideas of Karl Marx. In and out of prison in Siberia, charismatic and committed, always at the center of a fight, this young man would become known to the world as Joseph Stalin, a leader of the Bolshevik Revolution and eventually one of the most brutal dictators in history. Directly in Stalin's crosshairs was Emanuel Nobel, who represented everything Stalin despised about capitalism. As the world turned upside down, Emanuel began to plan a life-or-death escape from Russia. But would he make it out in time? And what would be the fate of the immense empire he and his family had built?

Sweeping across more than a hundred years of history, from the dawn of the Victorian Age to World War I to the Russian Revolution and beyond, this captivating book chronicles one of the most influential men in history, a man whose name has been stricken from memory, and returns him thrillingly to life.

With cooling effect
Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I recently tried this eye stick, and it’s honestly amazing. It feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives an instant refreshing effect under the eyes. It really helps with puffiness and makes my skin look smoother and more hydrated. I’m very happy with it, and I definitely recommend it!

This under-eye roller is so good, I had to buy it again after my husband took it from me lol. The metal roller is always cool, and it's a nice, refreshing wake-up.

Time will tell…
Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This feels really good going on, nice cooling effect. Not sure that it is doing much for my eye bags or dark circles. I’m going to Keep using it until it’s gone mainly because it feels nice. It’s not sticky, feels like a gel, but very cooling.

Burns if leaches into eyes.
Size: 0.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Do not get this product in your eyes! It really burns. Sometimes it will leach into eye and then the pain begins. I have used other eye rollers without any discomfort if accidentally goes into eyes . Please be careful. I will never order this again.
