A Russian book: Cossack in the Civil War in Southern Russia
This unique photo album is dedicated to one of the most interesting and tragic pages of our history - the participation of the Cossacks of the Don, Kuban, Tersky and Astrakhan troops in the Civil War in southern Russia, from November 1917 until the end of March 1920. To date, a number of good books have been written on this topic, however, unfortunately, there are very few publications illustrating this topic. This album is trying to fill this gap. It contains more than two hundred photographs (not including photographs), some of which are published for the first time; the part was published very rarely, and the rest is available on the Internet in very small size and very poor quality. First of all, this album is addressed to readers who are interested in this period of Russian history, but it will also be of interest to collectors, reconstructors, and scientists, and museum workers. The photographs presented in the album carry a huge semantic and spiritual burden, as they show people who find themselves by the will of fate in the cycle of terrible and bloody events, but who have found the strength and courage to embark on the path of struggle against the evil that befell our country.
