those who found themselves at the top during this historic change of epochs due to circumstances? What moral, political, and spiritual ideals and principles did they share? What were their historical opportunities, and did they have any at all? These questions are all the more significant because the role of the foremost figures in any authoritarian system, which is exactly what the Romanov monarchy was, is incredibly large. The book contains letters from the last two emperors: Alexander III and Nicholas II, as well as the empresses - Maria Feodorovna and Alexandra Feodorovna. These invaluable historical documents reveal various aspects of the lives of the autocrats and members of the ruling dynasty, their family relationships, pastimes, attitudes towards political events, and their degree of participation in them. The composition of the book, introductions, essays for the sections, comments, as well as the name index belong to the outstanding Russian historian A.N. Bokhanov (1944-2019).
