Old Petersburg

The Northern Palmyra – since the time when Russia came of age under the genius of Peter, and up to the brilliant, aristocratic beginning of the 19th century. The history of houses and palaces, parks and squares – and first... and foremost the Petersburgers themselves, as they once were... Lively and briskly written, which critics noted even after the first publication. This book is easy and enjoyable to read, while also containing a wealth of rare, little-known, and interesting facts that the author gathered from long-lost, mostly private archives, testimonies of Petersburg old-timers, and family traditions handed down from generation to generation since the founding of Petersburg.
