The book contains the works of Nikolai Evgenievich Markov (1866–1945), an outstanding Russian public figure, publicist, State Duma deputy, one of the leaders of the Black Hundred. In his works, Markov defended the national interests of the Russian people, showed the destructive activities of Masonic lodges and Zionist organizations for Russia. Markov's speeches in the State Duma were a vibrant social phenomenon that evoked a lively response throughout the country. Revealing the subversive activities of dark forces, Markov warned the government of an impending catastrophe. After 1917, Markov continued to fight against the dark forces that were destroying Russia. He published the magazine "Double-headed Eagle", was the chairman of the Supreme Monarchical Council. In his writings “Wars of the Dark Forces”, “The History of the Jewish Assault on Russia”, “The Face of Israel”, released abroad, Markov investigated the roots of the tragic events of the Russian Troubles at the beginning of the 20th century. A significant part of the works included in this edition are published for the first time since 1917. FOREWORD Nikolai Evgenievich Markov was born on Saturday, April 2, (Old Style) 1866 in the village of Aleksandrovka, Shchigrovsky district, Kursk province, 1 into a noble family. The historian MB Smolin writes that N. Ye. Markov's distant ancestor took part in the Battle of Kulikovo. It is difficult to say for certain whether it really was. Be that as it may, the Markov family was very ancient. According to some sources, he traced his descent from a Lithuanian nobleman who went into the service of the Russian tsar and received estates near Kursk in the 17th century. According to another version, the Markov family originated from the Voloshanian (that is, Moldovan or Romanian) Marco Ross, who served at the grand ducal court in the second half of the 15th century. N. Ye. Markov himself, in 1915, in the “Bulletin of the Union of the Russian People” stated another version of the origin of his kind. This version was put forward by him in response to accusations by the liberals of his alleged German origin. Here is what the politician himself wrote about this: “My family is an ancient noble family, and since the time of the Grand Duke of Moscow Ivan Vasilyevich III, who granted the ancestor of our Mark Tolmach an estate in the Moscow domain, our family has been invariably Russian for 400 years ... <...> I had a lot of ancestors of German blood in my family along female lines, but <...> to deduce from this that I am not Russian, but German, only a brain obsessed with pure blood can ... a national psychopath”2. N.E. Markov's father, Evgeny Lvovich Markov (in total, Evgeny Lvovich had five sons from two marriages) was a prominent writer, publicist, literary critic and teacher. It is known that in his youth he adhered to very liberal views, for some time (in 1858–1862) he collaborated in the Russian Bulletin, Otechestvennye Zapiski (editors - N. A. Nekrasov and M. E. Saltykov-Shchedrin ) and "Bulletin of Europe". However, later, after the villainous assassination of Emperor Alexander II on March 1, 1881, he abruptly changed his views, became an adherent of conservative beliefs, was an employee of the magazines Russkoye Obozreniye, Russkiy Vestnik, Nedelya, the newspaper Novoye Time "by A. Suvorin and" Rus "by I. S. Aksakov. In addition, EL Markov was the author of the sensational novel "Chernozem Fields". My father's brother, N. Ye. Markov's uncle, the famous fiction writer Vladislav Lvovich Markov, also adhered to conservative views. Without a doubt, the conservative convictions of N. Ye. Markov's relatives influenced the formation of his political views. NE Markov graduated from the Moscow Cadet Corps, and then in 1888 - the Institute of Civil Engineers. Shortly after graduation, he married and served as a railway engineer 3. In 1903, N. Ye. Markov's father died, and Nikolai Evgenievich inherited the estate (368 dessiatines, according to other sources - 250) at the village of Okhochevka, Shchigrovsky district, Kursk province. At the same time, Markov took up agriculture, was elected a vowel of the Shchigrovsky district and Kursk provincial zemstvo assemblies, a member of the Shchigrovsky district, and then the Kursk provincial zemstvo council. In 1905, he left the service with the rank of collegiate counselor 4. His older brother Lev Evgenievich Markov in the same Kursk province was the leader of the nobility of the Shchigrovsky district. It should be noted that the Markovs at that time enjoyed great influence in the Kursk province. Beginning of political activity From the beginning of the 1900s, N. Ye. Markov began to engage in active political activity. So, since 1904, he was a member of the circle of conservatively minded Kursk nobles, which formed around the Belgorod district marshal of the nobility, Count V.F. Dorrer (this circle included such prominent later right-wing figures as M. Ya. Govorukho- The youth, Prince N. D. Kasatkin-Rostovsky, G. A. Shechkov, J. V. Krivtsov, N. E. and G. E. Mukhanovs, and others). In December 1904, N. Ye. Markov, on behalf of the Kursk Zemstvo Assembly, drew up an address to Emperor Nicholas II, which emphasized the need to preserve the inviolability of the autocratic power. Subsequently, Markov himself described the events that took place during the adoption of the address: “The employees of the Cadet Provincial Zemstvo Board at that time rushed to us during the meeting, threatening with chairs and sticks, drove our zemstvo assembly out of the zemstvo house and, remaining victors , climbed onto the tables and began to sing the worker's "Marseleza". Outraged by the insolence of the revolutionaries, I entered their circle and proclaimed "Hurray!" To the autocrat of the All- Russian. My exclamation was supported by the majority of the public, and the robber tribe, frightened by the patriotic impulse of the people, fled shamefully into the street ”5. This example clearly characterizes N. Ye. Markov as a decisive person and a convinced conservative. Subsequently, it was the circle of the Kursk nobles that became the nucleus of the Kursk People's Party of Order (KNPP) 6, founded on September 5, 1904 and organizationally formed in September 1905, with about 500 members. N. Ye. Markov was one of the founders of this party, became the vice-chairman of its Shchigrovsky department. After in December 1906 this party was transformed into the Kursk Affairs of the Union of the Russian People (RNN), N.E. Markov became a member of the Council of its Kursk department, which consisted of approximately 1,770 people, and also founded and headed the Shchigrovsky district department of the RNC (in February 1912 he left the post of chairman of this department, remaining its honorary chairman). Since August 1909, N. Ye. Markov was also the chairman of the Kursk provincial department of the Union of the Russian People. In addition, since 1905, N. Ye. Markov took part in the activities of the congresses of the United Nobility, was a member of the commission on the Jewish question under its Permanent Council. Without a doubt, even in those years he was recognized by all right- wing experts on the Jewish question. On June 20, 1905, another very important event took place in the life of N. Ye. Markov. On this day, among the nobles of the Kursk province, Nikolai Evgenievich participated in a deputation to the Tsar. Representatives of the Kursk nobility demanded that the two main estates (the peasantry and the nobility) be preserved in the new state system, and also defended the estates of the elections and the inviolability of the autocratic power 7. In addition to his political activities, N. Ye. Markov was actively involved in journalism, in particular, he published the newspaper "Kurskaya Byl", and in 1907-1908. collaborated with the legal newspaper Svet. Later he became a regular author and publisher of Zemshina and the Bulletin of the Union of the Russian People, publishing under the pseudonyms Buy-Tur and Goy. In the elections to the Second State Duma (1907), N. Ye. Markov was elected as an elector to the provincial electoral assembly, but he ran for deputies unsuccessfully, although he received the largest number of votes among right-wing candidates. In the summer of 1907, Markov took part in the activities of the All-Russian congresses of zemstvo workers in Moscow and was at this congress one of the most active right-wing speakers.
