Here, dear reader, are excerpts from the diary of Vsevolod Fedorovich Rudnev, which were rewritten to replace the manuscript that perished in battle on "another ship." This is the author's real assessment of the feat of the cruiser "Varyag," for which he was awarded awards from both the Emperor and the Mikado.

The attentive reader will learn the origins of the events that led to such a logical conclusion from this book, which tells about the beginning of the career of midshipman Rudnev and his commander and patron, the future viceroy E.I. Alekseev. They will go up the career ladder together, first on the "Africa," then on the "Admiral Kornilov" and, ultimately, on the Pacific Ocean squadron.

In the book, the author talks about what he considers important for himself and considers it necessary to share with others. For example, about the combat training of the ship on which he served for four years. If desired, you can even compare the thoughts of midshipman V.F. Rudnev and the statements of the already known to readers lieutenant P.A. Vyrubov and midshipman F.F. von Reinhard.
The text of this publication is taken from the magazine "Russian Antiquity" for 1908-1909.
