Воспоминания генерала от инфантерии В. А. Слюсаренко посвящены трагическим страницам истории России. Он прошел практически всю Мировую войну, причем с первого до последнего дня на германском фронте. В Гражданскую войну ему довелось послужить и в армии гетмана Украинской державы П. П. Скоропадского, и в Вооруженных силах Юга России у А. И. Деникина и барона П. Н. Врангеля, после чего пришлось начинать фактически заново жизнь в шестьдесят с лишним лет на чужбине.

La Garde Imperial was created on 18 May 1804, and from its origins as a small personal escort, the Guard grew in size and importance throughout the Napoleonic era. Eventually, it became the tactical reserve of the Grande Armée, comprising almost a third of Napoleon’s field forces.

During this time, highly confidential world-leading research on the acoustic detection of submarines by asdic – now known as sonar – was carried out by hundreds of scientists, officers and local men and women based at Fairlie.

This is the first part of a planned four-volume series focusing on a hitherto largely neglected aspect of the Great War on the Western Front - the war underground. The subject has fascinated visitors to the battlefields from the very beginning of battlefield pilgrimages in the years immediately after the Armistice, and locations such as Hill 60 and the Grange Subway at Vimy have always been popular stops on such tours.
