Title: Spovid Buvshoho Tsaria (Confession of the Former Tsar)
Description: Winnipeg, Canada, Nakladom "Ruskoi knyharni, 1918. First Edition. First Ukrainian edition, translated from Russian, n. d. (ca 1918); 7 x 5 1/2; pp. [1], 4-64; green wraps, printed and ruled in black; a few nicks to fore-edge and a small chip to corner of front wrap; thin strip of foxing to margin of back wrap; overall in very good condition. Allegedly, written by the the last Emperor of Russia Nikolai II Romanov as an explanation to the events and reasons for his "abdication of the throne," it was sharply criticized and labeled "not entirely, but predominantly conscious lies" by the anonymous author of the preface, to the point, where one could wonder, if the "cofession" was really written by the tsar. Chapters included the history of the Romanovs with Rasputin, Tsarina Alexandra's contempt for the Russian people, etc. Very good .
