Legacy
In some Russian-language publications and websites there are somewhat legendary stories reported as fact, notably claiming that Boris I ruled Andorra for a number of years until 1941 whereupon he was overthrown by Vichy France. This version is not supported by accounts in other languages.
A novel, entitled Boris I, rei d'Andorra (Boris I, king of Andorra) based on Skossyreff's story was written in 1984 by Catalan author Antoni Morell i Mora. The author dedicated the book to his grandmother, whom he claimed had personally met Skossyreff. The novel was later adapted for the stage by Beth Escuda.
