UPDATE - JULY 2020
Plans to visit Romania, the birthplace of my ancestor, His Serene Highness Prince Dmitri Kantemir for July, 2020, had to be cancelled as a result of the worldwide pandemic.
His Serene Highness is interred at the Church of the Three Hierarchs in Iasi, Romania.
It would have been a memorable moment to be reunited after three hundred years.
I hope you all are staying safe and healthy during these unprecedented times.

Release of New Edition - Iron Blood II
Since the original publication of Iron Blood - 300 Years of the Dmitri Kantemir Dynasty, newly found historical and cultural documents and testimonies have been unearthed. They will be added to a new version, which will still contain the essence of the original. Additions include the discovery of “The Second Testament” of Princess Maria Cantemir from 1757, uncovered in the Russian archives of St. Petersburg, Russia. Further additions include the forgotten atrocities of the massacre of Cossacks in Lienz, Austria in 1945, providing dramatic insight to the desperation of innocent people.
The Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the Republic of Azerbaijan, in cooperation with the Azerbaijan National Library, presented a Meet and Greet book event of Iron Blood - 300 Years of the Dmitri Kantemir Dynasty by Princess Eleonora Borisovna Kantemir in Baku, on July 11, 2018.
Princess Eleonora just returned from Baku, Azerbaijan after a reunion with her long
lost sister, also named Eleonora who she writes about in the book.
The sisters are pictured standing by the Caspian Sea, July 7, 2017 on the occassion
of her sisters' birthday.
If you remember Anastasia was the second wife of Dmitri Kantemir, AND THE MOTHER OF THE LADY ON THE COVER OF 'IRON BLOOD', PRINCESS EKATERINA KANTEMIR.
(The painting of Anastasia Trubetskaya is on page 269 in the book and on display at the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbounre, Australia.)

PRINCESS ELEONORA BORISOVNA KANTEMIR I
July 7, 1938 - April 24, 2022 Born in Cherkessk, Russia & died in Baku, Azerbaijan on Paska Easter morning. Ella lived in Baku most of her life. A miracle occurred when she found her long lost sister after 50 years who was living in the US. A reunion took place in Baku in 2003 bringing the two Ellas together, who share the same name. The US visa quota for Ella to immigrate became available 16 years later. By then, Ella was too frail. She loved her country of Azerbaijan and most of all, she loved me too.
