Reseña del libro "Memoirs of a White Russian (en Inglés)"
If you are interested in the Russian Civil War (1917-1922), this contains a rare and new eyewitness account from the White Russian side. Efimij Mokrij participated as part of Denikin's Volunteer army in his teens, and later wrote about his experiences. The book was compiled and translated from a handwritten notebook after the author's death. He recounts how the over-stretched and disorganised army found itself in full retreat south to Rostov-on-Don. He did not know it then, but he was never to see or correspond with his family again. Later in World War 2, settled as a White émigré in Serbia, he was witness to a Nazi massacre, and narrowly escaped with his life by playing dead. He put his wife and young son on a train, and enlisted in the Axis-affiliated Russian Corps. At the end of the War, many of the Corps' ex-members were handed over by the Allies to Stalin's SMERSH agents, and hanged in Moscow as traitors. He survived. This book is his story in his words.
