The Cavalier Guards. 1812.White colet and phrygian cap

The book tells about the war of 1812 and about the foreign campaign of the Russian army. By the will of fate, the serf peasant, Fedot Andreev, runs from his landowner to the schismatics who hide him from the authorities. The former serf falls into the best regiment of the Russian Imperial Army, in the Cavalier Guard regiment. The crucible of the war of 1812—1814 passes, and finds its happiness in distant France.
