About the book: year / Boris Vladimirovich Gerua, Major General of the General Staff, a hereditary military man from a noble family of French origin, left behind the most interesting memories. They were first published in Paris in 1970. This edition presents the second volume of Memoirs of My Life, entirely dedicated to the First World War. Victories and defeats, the heroism of soldiers and the disintegration of the army by revolutionary agitators, meetings with Kerensky and Krylenko - the author talks about all this with an fascination unusual for military memoirists. Previously, the memoirs of B.V. Gerua have never been published in Russia.
