The new book by V. Cherkasov-Georgievsky is a kind of portrait gallery of the commanders who led the White movement during the civil war in Russia. They were once considered enemies of the working people and stranglers of freedom. Some of them, indeed, gained the sad fame of murderers and executioners, but most of the White Guard generals were justified by history. Remaining faithful to Russia to the end, they tried in their own way to fulfill their duty to the Fatherland. This book tells about the tragic fates of these people, who left their mark on the history of our Motherland.
