BRIEF SKETCH OF THE HISTORY OF L.-GU. Ataman His Imperial Highness Sovereign Heir Tsarevich Regiment 1775–1900

As the cornet Borodin wrote in 1891: “Unworthy to be called a Cossack is one of us who does not love the merits of his ancestors, who does not want to be like them, who does not proud of their high-profile deeds! But you can’t love what you don’t know; You can’t, of course, be proud of something you’ve never heard of! So, we Cossacks should know like the back of our hands what the merits of the Quiet Don are? Why is there such fame about him everywhere? But if we are ashamed not to know all the exploits of our fathers and grandfathers, it is even more shameful not to know the differences and merits of our own regiment, not to remember the names of the main characters! memo" and tells about the glorious military past of the Life Guards of the Ataman Heir to the Tsarevich regiment, one of the oldest regiments of the Russian Imperial Guard and the Don Cossack Army. “The Ataman Memo” has long ago become a bibliographic rarity, since it has not been published since 1900. This book will help everyone who is interested in the history of the Don Cossacks. The publishers express their deep gratitude to Mr. IN AND. Grekov, I.A. Shlotfeldt, N.Yu. Abramov, A.G. Chernyavsky for their help and participation in the publication of this book.
