Baron von Ungern-Sternberg is one of the most controversial figures on the list of famous military leaders during the Russian Civil War. A lucky commander who earned the nickname "god of war" among the superstitious Mongols, a European who was disappointed in his fellow tribesmen, a bloody executioner who spared neither women nor old people - all this is combined by one person whose personality is shrouded in a halo of mysticism and ominous prophecies. The book of Boris Sokolov reveals some details of the biography of Baron Ungern, as well as describes the events preceding his defeat and capture. The book is aimed at a wide range of readers and will be of interest to all lovers of military history.
