Based on archival documents, memoirs of contemporaries, epistolary heritage and historical chronicles the author tells about the life of Jamal-ad-din, the eldest son of Imam Shamil, who was given as an amanat (hostage) to the Russian command during the siege of Akhulgo in 1839. Many of the documents presented in the book are published for the first time.
