A collection of selected essays and reflections by Aleksandr Rudol'fovich Trushnovich (1893–1954), émigré political thinker, prominent member of the National Alliance of Russian Solidarists (NTS), and chairman of the Committee for Aid to Russian Refugees. Of Slovene background and a convert from Catholicism to Orthodoxy, Trushnovich was a staunch advocate of pan-Slavic unity under Russian leadership. His anti-Soviet activities ultimately led to his abduction and death at the hands of Soviet agents in Frankfurt am Main in 1954—a fact later acknowledged by Russian intelligence services following the collapse of the USSR. A scarce publication, issued shortly after his assassination.
