The article presented is concerned with the history of the daily life of Czechoslovak legionaries in Russia during the course of the First World War. Specifically, this means the journey of several hundred volunteers to France, where a good-sized Czechoslovak exile army was to have been formed. The grand plans involving thousands of prisoners however, for were for a variety of reasons abandoned, and the two transports from the Northern Russian ports were the only ones that departed for France during the war. The journey is not regarded from the point of view of political or strictly military history, even though in the introduction an outline of the so-called larger history is also briefly sketched in. The main emphasis is placed on the history of everyday life (messing, quarterage, clothing, free time, attention dedicated to the world around). Therefore, the study is based upon analysis of a collection of predominantly published personal sources of direct participants in the journey to France. It even includes the half-forgotten episode of the Czechoslovak captives who traveled to France all the way from the Romanian prison camps.

In her contribution, the author deals with a complexview of the role of Sokol during the World War I. She uses both archive sources as well as available literature. She confronts the Sokol activity with philosophy of Miroslav Tyrš, co-founder of Sokol, who promoted the ideal of military service and the work of an individual for the improvement of the whole. Sokol members were active in both the Czechoslovak Legions (in France, Russia and Italy) and domestic resistance movement (financial support of so-called Maffie, intelligence activity). Because of military hospitals established in Sokol gymnasiums, the club activity was demonstrated rather on the social-cultural or charity level (assistance in military hospitals, cooperation with charity organization České srdce [Czech Heart]). On 28 October 1918 and shortly after this date, Sokol members helped keep order in the street and secure non-violent retreat of foreign forces from the territory.

In 1917–1922 the Russians and their neighbors experienced a very painful period of their history – the Civil War. This conflict in Russia had also some impact on the Czechoslovak Army Corps that got trapped in that country in the years 1917– 1920 when the Bolsheviks had signed a peace treaty with the Central Powers. Previous historiography of the Soviet era in Russia and that of the socialist era in Czechoslovakia considered those events from the class- and party-based point of view, and Czechoslovak historians, under the pressure of Communist ideology and censorship reproduced the views of Bolshevist leaders, namely V. I. Lenin. Since 1990 new approaches to this period of Russian and our history have appeared. Confidential materials stored in archives as well as prohibited literature and journals have become available to the public and their study provides a better balanced view of the Civil War in Russia. A great contribution to both Czech and Slovak historiography is the large work done by Russian scientists who study the relevant archival materials and present the results of their work at conferences devoted to the First World War and/or the Civil War in Russia. Owing to several scientific institutions in the Perm Region a number of scientific conferences and exhibitions devoted to the Civil War in the Urals have been organized and the very first Civil War Museum has been opened in the village of Kyn containing an exhibition dedicated to the Czechoslovak legions.
