The second, enameled, stylishly and lavishly illustrated edition invites us to enjoy over 400 monochrome photos (late XIXth - early XXth century) from Rostov Museum of Regional Studies. The photographs are arranged thematically in the following sections: Down the City (views of old Rostov); The Merchant's Word of Honor (Rostov businessmen); Everything for the Benefit of the Rostovites (Rostov public figures); Gentlemen of "Russian Chicago" (cultural figures of Rostov); Women of Worldwide Beauty; and "Human Flowers" (children of Rostov). Informative historical data make the album a good read.
