More about the book
Vasily Filatov, a village teacher who lived under the harsh control of the Soviet Union, professed to have had knowledge of the private life of Tsar Nicholas II and his family, and of details surrounding their massacre in 1918, following the Russian Revolution. In the 1980s, when Soviet archives were opened to the public during perestroika, they were found to verify stories that Filatov had told his family. This book claims that 14-year-old Tsarevich Alexei survived the massacre, and that he and Vasily Filatov were one and the same. Filatov's widow and children provide personal reminiscences
