Description
[ANTON IVANOVICH DENIKIN (1872-1947); FYODOR DMITRIEVICH KRYUKOV (1870-1920); RUSSIAN CIVIL WAR], A rare and historically important collection of 6 (six) broadsheets of the Don Cossack Host for the White Russian Army, appealing for the defeat of the Bolsheviks for a free Russia, 1919. 2 measuring c.63 x 52.5 cm (24 3/4 x 20 5/8 in.) and 4 measuring c. 52 x 31.5 cm (20 3/8 x 12 3/8 in.). The present lot is exceptional not only for its rarity (it is near miraculous that the present documents have survived in-tact), but also for for the fact that the author of one of the broadsheets is listed as Secretary Fyodor Dmitrievich Kryukov (1870-1920), Cossack writer and soldier of the White Russian Army. As Alexander Solzhenitsyn has suggested, and as many others believe, Fyodor Kryukov has been called the true author of Tikhiy Don [And Quiet Flows the Don] (see A. Sozlzhenitsyn, Fedor Dmitrievich Kriukov in Stremia Tikhogo Dona (Zagadka Romana). Paris: YMCA Press, 1974.
