Tragična sudba Nikole II. i njegove porodice: trinaest godina na ruskom carskom dvoru (ilustrirano izdanje)

Pierre Gilliard

The Tragic Fate of Nicholas II and His Family is a memoir by Pierre Gilliard, a Swiss French teacher who spent thirteen years (1905–1918) at the Russian imperial court as a tutor to Tsarevich Alexei.

The book provides an intimate and poignant account of the life of the last Romanov imperial family, from their everyday life in the palaces of Peterhof and Tsarskoe Selo, through exile in Tobolsk, to their tragic end in Yekaterinburg.

Gilliard describes in detail the personalities of the members of the Romanov family, their mutual affection and the challenges they faced, especially in relation to Alexei's hemophilia. He pays special attention to Rasputin's influence on Empress Alexandra and the political isolation of Emperor Nicholas II, which, according to the author, contributed to the destabilization of the imperial regime.

After the February Revolution of 1917, Gilliard followed the family in detention, first in Tsarski Selo, then in Tobolsk, and finally in Yekaterinburg. It describes their everyday life under guard, the increasing isolation and uncertainty that culminated in their execution in July 1918.

The book is a valuable historical source, because the author, as a direct witness, provides a unique insight into the last years of the Russian imperial family. His testimony is characterized by restrained emotion, but also by deep compassion for the family with whom he shared his years of life.
