Anton Ivanovich Denikin began writing the «Essays on the Russian Tumult» soon after his resignation as Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of South Russia and emigration to Belgium — at a time when the memories were still fresh in...
his mind, but all the necessary archives and documents were not yet available to the author.
In the «Essays», a sincere, vivid, and lively narrative of the events that Denikin witnessed firsthand intertwines with attempts to provide an impartial and, as far as possible, objective assessment of the collapse of the Empire, the revolution, and the Civil War.
The first volume of the «Essays» is dedicated to the events preceding the October Revolution of 1917 — the growing discontent in society, the abdication of the emperor, the reforms of the Provisional Government, and the gradual collapse of the Russian army, which was inextricably linked to the general's entire life.
