Always with Honor is the gripping memoir of General Pyotr Wrangel, the last commander of the White Army during the Russian Civil War. In this vivid and unflinching account, Wrangel chronicles the chaos, courage, and tragedy of his struggle against the Bolsheviks―a fight for the soul of Russia amid the collapse of an empire. From the brutal battlefields of the Civil War to the harrowing retreat of his forces into exile, Wrangel reflects on the virtues of duty, loyalty, and the cost of honor in an era of revolution. With keen insight into the political and military strategies that defined the White movement, he provides a rare, firsthand perspective on one of the 20th century’s most tumultuous periods. This Passage Classics release features updated maps and place names, as well as additional appendix material, including a letter from Wrangel to General Denikin written shortly after the war and excerpts from Wrangel’s father’s post-war memoir, From Serfdom to Bolshevism. This is the definitive English-language edition of Wrangel’s memoir.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Baron Pyotr Nikolayevich Wrangel (August 27, 1878 – April 25, 1928), was a Russian cavalry commander who served in the Imperial Russian Army during World War I, earning Russia's highest medal for valor, the Order of St. George (4th Class). When Russia was plunged into revolution, Wrangel eventually joined the White Army, becoming widely recognized as one of the beleaguered counterrevolutionary force's most brilliant and just leaders. He eventually became the final supreme commander of all White forces, personally supervising the evacuation of more than 150,000 soldiers and civilians from Crimea, saving them from certain death. After the White defeat, he continued to serve the Russian émigré community in exile.
