The fate of the “Kolchak’s gold” - parts of the gold reserves of the Russian Empire, which fell into the hands of the whites in 1918 - one of the most famous and exciting mysteries of Russian history of the twentieth century. Based on the materials of the American, British and Russian archives, the historian Oleg Budnitsky managed to allow this riddle and trace the movement of money proceeds from the sale of gold, which were spent until the end of the 1950s. The meaning of such a historical “investigation” is not only to put an end to the delayed debate about the fate of the “gold of Kolchak”. This plot serves as a rod on which the problems of the history of the White movement and its foreign financing, the relationships of the White and their allies, the Russian “diplomacy in exile”, Russian emigration and others are “strung”. Ultimately, this is another attempt to answer the key question of the Russian history of the twentieth century: why the Reds and not white defeated in the civil war.
