The author of this work is a theologian, historian of the Russian church, church and public figure, professor Anton Vladimirovich Kartashev (1875-1960). In 1919, he left Russia, becoming an active figure in the Russian emigration. There, in Paris in 1956, one of his main works on the history of the Russian Orthodox Church was published - the book "Reconstruction of Holy Russia." In this study, Kartashev notes that "Faith in St. Russia itself, the conviction that there are no saving paths for Russia outside it - this is the main spiritual capital, without which we are nothing. But faith without works is dead. Creative faith requires not only contemplation, but also action. And action requires plan, method, technique, organization, and patient work."
