The Life and Tragedy of Alexandra Feodorovna by Baroness Sophie Buxhoeveden, 1928
The letter:
Nicky was at Lwoff [Lwów] and Peremyschel [Przemyśl] — most interesting. He has not yet returned as he went to Odessa, Sebastopol to see the troops, dockyards, etc. We expect him back in about 5 days. But spies are everywhere! Going to Bielostock, one threw masses of bombs from the aeroplanes on that town — railway — on Olga's sanitary train too. In time Nicky turned off — so filthy!
