The memoirs of Boris Alexandrovich Engelhardt are the life story of an entire generation, filled with portraits of contemporaries and detailed descriptions of the most important events of the late 19th and first half of the 20th centuries. Beginning his memoirs with his entry into the Corps of Pages in 1887, the author gradually turned to the history of Russia in the early 20th century as a whole, bringing the narrative to the end of the Civil War, his forced emigration, and the Soviet period of his life. In 1939, "Memoirs of a Page of the Chamber," covering the period from 1887 to 1896, were published in Riga. This publication became the only edition of the memoirs of B. A. Engelhardt, who edited his manuscript until the end of his days, receiving rejections from various publishers. This scholarly edition of the memoirs of B. A. Engelhardt is the first fully annotated publication in Russian historiography, and will be of interest to both specialists and the general public.
