The book is devoted to a controversial and still unresolved topic - Batu's campaign against Novgorod in 1238. The author is sure - on the basis of ancient Russian chronicles - that the main corridor for Batu's route to Novgorod was the Seligersky route, founded by the Novgorodians back in the 12th century. Moreover, it is a land, not a waterway, as some scientists, including eminent ones, say. The author of this publication has her own point of view, L. Moiseeva is also sure that the Novgorodians hurried to the aid of Torzhok, besieged by Batu, by this Seligersky route.
