This book was banned for a long time: materials about the Civil War collected by the famous historian S. A. Piontkovsky shortly after its end, in 1925, were later classified or lost, and the book itself was buried in a special archive for 100 years. It contains documents of both "red" and "white", and they are given without any bias or ideological comments, in their original form. This publication contains materials directly related to the military actions of the Soviet and anti–Soviet armies, political and organizational issues, such as orders and messages from Lenin, Trotsky, Kolchak, Denikin, Wrangel, Petliura and others. Among the documents collected by S. A. Piontkovsky, many relate to the role of the Western powers in the Russian Civil War, and these documents are also presented in the book.
