A.A. Gordeev – a hereditary Don Cossack, a Colonel of the Don Army, a holder of the Order of St. George, a participant in World War I and the White movement, created a comprehensive work on the history of Cossacks... in the Russian state.

He described the continuous and difficult wars fought by the Cossacks to defend their lands, as well as their campaigns as part of the Russian armies. He presented the historical fates of all Cossack troops of the Russian Empire: Don, Ural, Kuban, Terek, Orenburg, Astrakhan, Siberian, Semirechensk, Transbaikal, Yenisei, Amur, and Ussuri.
