Description
Baron Gustaf Mannerheim was a figure of immense complexity and achievement in the 20th century. His life spanned two world wars, espionage, and leadership, as he defied capture by the Bolsheviks to lead Finland's resistance against Russia. Mannerheim's experiences took him from witnessing the coronation of the last Tsar to crossing China on horseback, where he posed as a Swedish anthropologist. This major new biography of Mannerheim uncovers new historical material on his time in China and provides a comprehensive account of his remarkable life. First published over a decade ago, this book is a significant addition to our understanding of one of the 20th century's most fascinating figures.
