Vladimir Petrovich Anichkov, a Russian banker and an entrepreneur, for a long time headed the department of the Volga-Kama bank and, as a result, was in the very center of the February and subsequent events in the Urals and Siberia. Soon after the revolution, Anichkov became part of the Public Security Committee. In his book, the author tells how he was waiting for red terror in the vicinity of the city of Yekaterinburg. After the Bolsheviks came to power and the nationalization of banks, Anichkov was arrested and later fled. He worked in the Ministry of Finance of the Government of Kolchak.
The work is full of living observations and rare details. The narrative of events and historical characters that are not invented, but absolutely real, read, without exaggeration, as an adventure novel. The atmosphere of that time was transmitted excellently, and the names are familiar to everyone who is interested in the history of the Fatherland: the exiled princes Sergei Mikhailovich, Konstantin and Igor Konstantinovichi Romanov, the murder investigator Nikolai Sokolov, the valet of Emperor Nicholas II Terenty Scheodurov and a string of contemporaries, drawn into the horizons of the revolutionary coup
