Abstract
The book of memoirs of Norwegian entrepreneur Egil Abrahamsen about his work in Arkhangelsk province in 1908—1928 is analyzed. The author highlights stories related to the revolutionary events of 1917, foreign intervention, and the establishment of the Soviet regime in the European North of Russia. Attention is drawn to the description of the life and traditions of the inhabitants of the White Sea area: the Pomors, representatives of the Orthodox clergy, Old Believers, peasants, lumbermen and sawmill workers. It is concluded that the book expands readers’ understanding of the history and culture of Russia and forms a respectful attitude to the citizens of Russia and Norway.
