The
Cossacks is a short novel by Leo Tolstoy. It was originally called Young
Manhood. The Cossacks is believed to be somewhat autobiographical, partially
based on Tolstoy's experiences in the Caucasus during the last stages of the
Caucasian War. Tolstoy had a wild time in his youth, engaging in numerous
promiscuous partners, heavy drinking and gambling problems; many argue Tolstoy
used his own past as inspiration for the protagonist Olenin.
