Meanwhile, he was a bright, extraordinary person, a fearless hero of the Caucasian War and an outstanding thinker - a geopolitician and sociologist. Experts believe that Fadeev's work is the best study of Russia's eastern policy. The brilliant literary style, sharpness and paradox of thought make reading Fadeev's works a real "feast of reason."
