History of the Cossacks

Nicholas V. Feodoroff

"Mr. Feodoroff, a Cossack himself, offers us a detailed history of his people, including their politics, military affiliations, culture, ideology and philosophy, as well as their typical personality characteristics. A picture emerges quite at variance with the image projected by the media in the West. We are presented with rare illustrations and descriptions of a lifestyle filled with adventure and faith."--BOOK JACKET.
