Gift book in leather cover "The Book of a Russian officer" by V. Kulchitsky

In the words of one of its authors, the Russian officer and writer V. Kulchitsky, the book "contains old but eternal truths that are forgotten by most, and unknown to young officers." At one time, they were allegedly the basis for the code of the Soviet Guard. Together with the unspoken Dueling Code, which establishes the principles of officer and not only duels, the notes of the prominent Russian combatant officer M. Galkin and the Cossack officer I. Yaitsky are published for the first time. A broad picture of the essence of the service of Russian officers arises - in classes with soldiers, in regimental and everyday life.
