The book that you hold in your hands is dedicated to the most famous Russian commanders at the beginning of the 19th century. Those who, on their shoulders, carried out a “thunderstorm of the twelfth year”, the heroes of wars with Napoleon – M. B. Barclay de Tolly, A. P. Ermolov, M. A. Miloradovich, P. I. Bagration and M. I. Kutuzov. Each of them was interesting and unique in its own way. Everyone made a significant contribution to the victory. At the same time, the actions of the commanders were not always understood by contemporaries, and the descendants often subjected their portraits to varnish. The author made an attempt to tell about his characters without gloss and excessive pathetics.
