A.G. Mosyakin's study "The Gold of the Russian Empire and the Bolsheviks" introduces into scientific and public circulation a large layer of archival documents revealing the fate of the world's largest Russian gold reserve, created before the First World War and disappeared in eight years.
The fate of Russian gold, taken abroad by the tsarist government during the war, is generally known. But the fate of the gold reserve of Imperial Russia, which went to the Bolsheviks, is almost entirely a dark spot in Russian history. The documents published here shed light on it. They show the special role played by the "tsarist" gold in the course and outcome of the Russian Civil War, and reveal the secret connections of the Bolshevik leaders with the world financial oligarchy, allowing a glimpse into the backstage of historical events that saved the Bolshevik regime from collapse. Almost all of the 742 published documents come from the Russian State Archive of Economics and are published for the first time in facsimile. The document about Lenin's accounts in New York banks, sent to the author from the USA, is also given in facsimile. The presented documents and their analysis force a new look at the historical events of a century ago, which determined the future of Russia and the whole world. For historians and a wide range of readers.
