In his artistic sketches and essays of a local lore and memoir character the well-known writer tells about a centuries-old history of Izmailovo - a wonderful place in Moscow, the center of Russian material and spiritual culture. The book, based on old printed sources and archival documents, recreates the atmosphere of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich, many events from the subsequent historical periods and people lived at that time. The edition is well-illustrated with rare pictures.
