The book contains for the first time tales and legendary stories, rarely mentioned in the official ancient and recent history of the city. Some of them occasionally appeared on the pages of local history publications of the 19th and 20th centuries, others were preserved by city rumor, others were retold by old-timers of the city, the author-compiler of this book was an eyewitness of recent city curiosities. The texts provided in many ways complement the official biography of Rostov-on-Don, help to understand the soul of the city, the mentality of its residents. Numerous historical and modern photo illustrations accompanying the texts create an image of a changing, but at all times optimistic city.
