The book is the fifteenth volume in a series devoted to the White Movement in Russia, and tells about the last battles of the Russian Army of General P.N. Wrangel and its evacuation from the Crimea and covers the period from early September to early November 1920. The successful offensive actions of the Whites collapsed when the Bolsheviks, who had concluded a truce with the Poles, created against the Russian Army almost 5-fold advantage in manpower, especially in cavalry. The White Army was forced to withdraw first across the Isthmus to the Crimea and then to the ports. The evacuation of the Russian Army was conducted by Wrangel impeccably, and is now considered in all military textbooks as an exemplary-classical. These were the last knights of the Russian Empire, going into exile with their heads proudly raised. "Glory to the vanquished!" - so said to them and about them those who gave themselves an account of the drama of the events that took place in Russia. The book is equipped with extensive and for the first time published commentaries containing several hundred unknown biographical references about the authors and heroes of the essays.
