Recently, the "tsarebozhtsy" have become very active, they organize processions, prayers, even weddings, with the involvement of the troops of the guard of honor. So I decided to introduce readers a little to how the "fellow" would live in tsarist Russia. 1911. Then the first "school of pilots" was formed in Russia: the Gatchina Higher Officer School of Aeronautics, which graduated from its "bowels" most of the outstanding aviation pilots of imperial Russia and the Red Army Air Force. From there there went Russian aviation, both sea and land. The book covers the pre-war, military and the first year of Soviet power. Shows why the revolution took place in Russia, and the inevitability of the collapse of the "Romanov dynasty."
