Vladimir Kovalevskii''s memoirs record in graphic detail a remarkable military career. As a soldier, a committed anti-communist and Russian patriot he saw from the inside a series of conflicts that ravaged Europe in the first half of the twentieth century. In the First World War he fought the Germans, as a White Russian he opposed the Bolsheviks. He joined the French Foreign Legion and served in Africa before fighting for Franco in the Spanish Civil War and for Hitler in the Spanish Blue Division on the Eastern Front in the Second World War. His memoirs give a vivid insight into the armies he fought with and the causes he fought for – and they show how eventually the mental toll became so great that he was devoured by his own contradictions and the contradictions of his times. His experiences on the Eastern Front during the Second World War were shocking. He hoped the German campaign in the Soviet Union would liberate the Russian people, but after witnessing the grim suffering inflicted on the civilian population by a brutal occupying army he was deeply disillusioned and tormented by a sense of guilt. In the late 1940s, in order to make sense of his life as a soldier and to document the extraordinary sights he''d seen, he wrote these memoirs in Russian. They were buried in an archive for over seventy years, but they have now been edited, annotated and translated for this first English edition.

The Bolshevik takeover of Russia created an alternative Russia in exile that never laid down its arms. For two decades, expelled White Russians sought ways to retaliate against the Soviet Union and return home. Their irreconcilability was galvanized by a superstructure, the dominant military organization, the Russian All-Military Union (ROVS). Eventually, militant anti-Bolshevism led the exiled Russians into alliance with Nazi Germany, despite the latter’s anti-Slavic stance. For Russia with Hitler tells the story of how thousands of White Russian émigrés joined the German invasion of the Soviet Union as soldiers, translators, and civilian workers.Oleg Beyda investigates and contextualizes émigré collaboration with National Socialist Germany, explaining how it was possible for Russians to fight against the Russians. The book reveals that the exiles, although united ideologically by Russian nationalism in a general sense, did not establish one single, clear-cut political solution for a future "liberated Russia." Drawing on wide archival material, For Russia with Hitler details the background and ideological framework of the émigrés, how they rationalized their support for Nazism, and what they did on the Eastern Front, including their reactions to life in occupation, war crimes, and the Holocaust.

Soviet Turncoats
General Andrei Vlasov and the Russian Liberation Army, 1942-1945
AvOleg Beyda,Igor Petrov
Inbunden, Engelska, 2025
460 kr
Kommande
In April 1945, in one of the final battles of the Second World War, on the Oder river east of Berlin, Russian troops, clad in German uniforms, fought against the advancing Red Army. Why would Russians fight against their compatriots, and how did the Soviet collaboration come about?In this insightful and meticulously researched study Oleg Beyda and Igor Petrov answer these questions and explore, in vivid detail, the wider issue of the collaboration of Soviet citizens with the Axis powers. Their work throws a fascinating new light onto this long-suppressed aspect of the Great Patriotic War, a crucial topic that remains deeply controversial in contemporary Russia.The most famous figure in this complicated history is Andrei Vlasov, the captured Red Army general who defected to the Germans and became the commander of the Russian Liberation Army. His wartime career, and the careers of the other Soviet prisoners of war and Russian migr s who joined him, are the central characters in the story. The motivations of these men varied: while some had switched loyalties out of conviction, for many POWs the choice was between collaboration or slow death in a German prison camp.As the book reveals, for the most of its history, the Russian Liberation Army remained a German propaganda project, a hodgepodge of scattered yet effective military units from former POWs under strict German command. Nevertheless, Vlasov and his officers sometimes sought to conduct their own policy independent of their German masters. Right at the end of the war, in Prague, in a desperate attempt to do right' by the Allies, Vlasov's units fought against German troops, yet again changing sides.The challenges these men faced, and the choices they had to make between loyalty, anti-Bolshevism and survival, make this book a fascinating reading.
Beyond the Siege of Leningrad

This memoir about the experiences of German occupation during the siege of Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) was written by Moscow-born Evdokiia Vasil’evna Baskakova-Bogacheva (1888–1976), an émigré in Australia, at the age of eighty-one. The text had been forgotten in the Museum of Russian Culture in San Francisco since 1970 until the editors of this volume discovered it.In the memoirs, after accounting on her youth spent against the background of the First World War and of the two Russian revolutions of 1917, Evdokiia describes the inferno of the Nazi occupation as experienced in a suburb of Leningrad in 1941-43. She survived for nearly two years almost on the front line, within a few kilometers of the blockade ring. As a medical practitioner, she became useful for the occupational authorities and the ever-shrinking town population, until her family was evacuated to the west in October 1943. Besides hunger, discord, disease, the hunt for food and firewood, along with violence and death, Evdokiia’s account deals with various forms of cooperation between Soviet citizens and the new authorities. All the events she recalls can be confirmed through other sources. The introduction and the detailed notes to the text help the reader to locate Evdokiia’s recollections in time and place, and situate them in their historical context.
