The 18 page typescript by Terskii, "Bat'ko Makhno, provides a brief history of Nestor Makhno's forces in the Civil War. It is chiefly based on secondary sources, but occasional autobiographical notes are interspersed through the manuscript. Terskiĭ fought in Wrangel's White Army in the Crimea in 1920, and, in the late 1920's, was a transport engineer in the southeastern Ukraine, the area in which Makhno's forces were strongest. Appended to the manuscript is a copy of an appeal from General Shatilov to Makhno dated 18 June 1920.
