Gustaf Mannerheim is one of the most complex and dramatic figures in the XXth-century politics: a son of an impoverished Swedish family, a guardsman who lived fast in St.Petersburg, a traveler-spy, military general who fought with the Japanese and Germans, a leader of the "White Movement" in Finland who stifled the "Red Finns" and resisted the power of the Red Army", a commander who entered into alliance with Hitler but refused to assault Leningrad. The book discloses all of the aspects of this contradictive personality in the most detailed way.
