About the book: 2016 / This book is dedicated to the legendary man, the Russian general Baron Roman Fedorovich von Ungern-Sternberg (1885–1921 gg.). His fate was bright, swift and short. A talented and fearless commander, a prominent figure in the White movement in the Far East, who achieved the restoration of the independence of Mongolia, was betrayed by his own soldiers and officers. Memoirs of Second Lieutenant N.N. Knyazev, who served in the Asian Cavalry Division under the command of Baron Ungern, introduce readers to the events of those distant years and shed light on many controversial facts of the biography of the legendary baron. The publication includes rare photographs illustrating the life path of Roman Fedorovich von Ungern.
