The book contains memoirs not only of eyewitnesses, but also of direct participants in the white movement in Russia. General Anton Turkul (1892-1957) and ensign Georgy Venus are the so-called "Drozdovites." Mikhail Drozdovsky (1881-1919) was one of the organizers and leaders of the Volunteer White Army, operating during the war in Russia. The views of A. Turkul and G. Venus on the events of those times are not indisputable, but the reader will be interested to get acquainted with them, as with the evidence of that fratricidal war.
