The book examines a large period of Taganrog history, which includes several periods: the founding of the city by Peter I, its construction, destruction under a treaty with Turkey and then its revival, flourishing, and role as the most important southern port. The author devotes much attention to A.P. Chekhov, thanks to whom a small provincial city found its unique place in the history of world culture.
