Elena Bondareva's book is the first biography in Russia of the monarch of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, Alexander Karageorgevich. Over a hundred years ago, he created and led this common state for the southern Slavs, which emerged after the First World War. Alexander was an outstanding military leader and reformer, who made considerable efforts to prevent a new world slaughter, strengthening regional alliances such as the Little Entente and the Balkan Pact. His tragic death from a fascist bullet in Marseille in 1934 changed the history of Yugoslavia and had an impact on the fate of Europe.
The book delves into the themes of Russia in the life of the Yugoslav king, his relationship with the imperial family, and Alexander's care for Russians in exile. Research in the archives of Russia and Serbia has allowed for the introduction of new documents into scholarly circulation about the life and fate of this outstanding monarch of the 20th century.
