Väga hea lugemine Conrad Carlssonilt, kes võttis osa vabatahtlikuna Soome ja Eesti Vabadussõjast ning hiljem teenis Loodearmees. Lugesin ühe õhtuga läbi! Kirjutab asjadest tõetruult, ilustamata, nii nagu sõjas oli.

Hi!

I'm so sorry for the very much late reply :oops:
I have not put so much time into research for the Swedes in Estonia.

Regarding the correct name I only got this text from the auction catalog:
551 GROUP OF DECORATIONS
Order of S:t Vladimir, fourth class with swords in gold, 38x33 mm, Order of S:t Stanislaus third class in gold with swords, 40x40 mm IK, Order of S:t George badge in silver, Russia, Cross of Liberty, Estonia, bronze medal Wabadussöja 1918-1920, silver medal “Svenska vita legionen” 1919-1920, silver medal Svenska frikåren i Estland 1919, silver medal Estland 1919. Proveniens: A Scandinavian officer and nobleman who participated in the war against the Bolsheviks after the revolution.

The second group is described as (with a really bad picture from the auction pdf):
552 BADGES (5)
Sweden, 3 crosses SVL (Svenska vita legionen), 1 breast cross, 1 medal “Svenska frikåren i Estland 1919 Narva”, Provenance: See lot 551.

Hello again!

I am looking for books that describes the North-West Army during the Russian revolution. But I can't find any.

Anyone knows about any good books in English that describes the North-West Army and the other fighting during the Russian revolution?
Is Trotskij's book about the revolution a must to read - or is it only politics?

I am also planning to see the Estonian war archives (when that is possible) to find information. How much is it possible to prepare from their home page www.ra.ee?


Regards,
Stefan
