In 1920 Anna escaped to Finland and lived quietly at Vyborg. There she wrote these remarkable memoirs that offer a hagiographic recollection of the life and character of Empress Alexandra, Emperor Nicholas II and their five children. Viroubova describes a diverse array of incidents in the life of the Imperial family which collectively attest to the sincere and loving nature of the Empress. In the appendix, V.M. Roudneff reviews Vyroubova's relationship with Alexandra and Rasputin.

Due to her privileged position at the Court of the last Russian tsar and her close association to the Imperial Family, Anna Vyroubova's memoirs are highly regarded by those who share a special love for the family of Nicholas II.
