The new encyclopedia is called ''100 Russian participants in the French Resistance.'' The idea of creating the collection belongs to the historian, head of the Mémoire russe association Sergei Dybov.
Books and articles about Russian emigrants who participated in the fight against the Nazis as part of the French Resistance have been published previously. The uniqueness of the encyclopedia is that the number of heroes will be significantly expanded.
The book will include information about 100 Russian members of the Resistance operating in France. Biographical data will be taken from the archived personal files of the soldiers. At the presentation of the encyclopedia project, Sergei Dybov will talk about little-known Russian participants in the Resistance.
