Memoirs, thoughts and conclusions: 1904-1921

Grigorii Mikhailovich Semenov (1890-1946), soldier, philosopher and polyglot, was an anti-Bolshevik leader in the Trans-Baikal area. In 1917 he organized an armed anti-Soviet campaign, and in 1918 established an autocratic regime in the region. In early 1919, with Japanese support, he proclaimed himself Ataman (chieftain) of the Trans-Baikal Cossack army. In 1920 Semenov succeeded Admiral Kolchak as ruler of “the Russian Eastern province”. After emigration in 1921 he was the leader of the Far Eastern White Guard Cause. In 1945 he was seized by the Soviet army in Manchuria, and executed by order of the military tribunal. The memoirs he wrote in emigration bring back many of the episodes of the Revolution, Civil War and the White Cause movement. Attachment includes excerpts from Semenov’s 1921 “Plan of struggle against Bolshevism”.
