The second Paris edition (1971) of the first "knot" ("Knot I") of the historical epic "The Red Wheel" — the novel "August 1914," devoted to the defeat of the Russian army in the East Prussian operation at the beginning of the First World War. As stated in the author's afterword, the book could not be printed in the USSR for censorship reasons. The novel clearly expresses Solzhenitsyn's Orthodox-patriotic views and his concept of the causes of the national catastrophe of 1917. Published by the leading émigré publishing house "Ymca-Press." The copy is an important monument of literature of the Russian diaspora and dissident thought.
