The materials for this book about the fate of his great -grandfather Alexander Makeev - the head of the Center for Documentation of the Museum of the History of the Gulag - collected for three years. During this time, a huge number of requests were made to various archives of Russia and the former republics of the USSR, materials of investigative, administrative and personal affairs were received.
A large number of photos and letters, it seemed, lost forever. Alexander managed to find 38 letters of his great -grandfather from Siblag.
These are the last letters of the pastor in which he is trying to support his relatives in forced separation. Wife and children, until the end of his life, did not have a chance to find out what happened and why letters from Siblag stopped coming. During the search, the great -grandson managed to find out the real reason for such silence: Voldemar Wagner was shot on September 24, 1937.
Alexander Makeev also managed to establish the identities of people who directly participated in the execution of the great -grandfather, all members of the shooting team. Alexander Makeev in his book does not just describe the fate of a repressed family. He shares search experience. Thanks to this study, the author changed his occupation, began to work at the Center for the Documentation of the Gulag Museum and help those who are looking for information about the repressed
