The memoirs of Alexander Alexandrovich Savinsky (1868-1934), a high-ranking diplomat of pre-revolutionary Russia, presented in this edition, have been virtually unknown in our country until now, and the name of their author was known only to a limited number of historians. Meanwhile, in the early 20th century Savinsky was among the most influential diplomats, personally knew the key figures of his era and had access to all the state secrets of the Russian Empire, concerning the sphere of foreign policy, whether it was an alliance with France, participation in the Balkans or the clash with Japan in the Far East.
In a lively, vivid and imaginative narrative Savinsky, filled with a lot of interesting details, shows an extraordinary literary talent and a deep knowledge of what he writes about. First published in London in 1927, Savinsky's memoirs paint the world of the early 20th century, forever disappeared in the summer of 1914.
The book is intended for a wide range of readers: specialist historians, students and all lovers of history.
