Amazing career of a count who aspired to a throne
Count Nicholas Savin, Russian aristocrat born 1858, built a vast fortune through lavish spending and gambling in Paris, extracted funds from women and nobles, and ran espionage for Russia and other states. Escaped Siberian exile, swindled grain sales in Tomsk, fled via China to the United States, fought in Cuba, then endured poverty in Chicago and New York before returning to Europe.
