Sobre IBD

This book is based on the abduction of the only daughter of General Zass, the most cruel of all Russian generals of the Russo-Caucasian War (1763–1864), who used to cut off the heads of Circassians and keep them placed on bayonets or poles in his Prichni-Okop fortification. In order to punish him for this cruelty and to awaken in him a sense of human compassion, three Adyghe (Circassian) heroes risked their lives against all odds to abduct his only daughter. They brilliantly accomplished that dangerous undertaking and punished him for some time, but after keeping her as a respectful guest, they took her back to her parents in the Russian fortification, where the rift and deep disagreement instantly flares up especially between the beloved daughter and her father, concerning the cruel Russian treatment of the Circassians in that war.
