Rußlands letzter Zar: Das Ende der Romanows was translated from Russian into German by Klaus‑Dieter Goll. This first German edition, published in 1988 by Verlag der Nation, includes illustrations and provides a detailed account of the downfall of the Romanov dynasty—focusing on the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II in March 1917, followed by the family’s imprisonment and tragic fate in Yekaterinburg in July 1918. The burial sites remained hidden for decades, eventually uncovered by amateur historians and later officially recognized. The book offers a somber and deeply human account of one of the most poignant turning points in Russian history.
