The manuscript found in Saragos. Pototsky I.

Count Yang Pototsky (1761 - 1815) was an extremely unusual person, whose biography keeps a lot of mysteries. An outstanding archaeologist and traveler, geographer and ethnographer, publisher and diplomat, he was simultaneously a famous mystic, close to the Freemason and Knights of the Maltese Order, with whom he maintained mysterious contacts all his life. Even the death of this man was mysterious: exhausted by chronic migraines, Pototsky shot himself from a pistol, for some reason charged... a silver bullet that he cast with his own hands. However, the main secret left to his descendants is the only work that he wrote and rewritten all his life, “the manuscript found in Saragos.”
