One should't treat the book by Solomon Volkov as a historical encyclopedia due to the fact that in creating it the author didn't aim to number the events related to the history of Saint-Petersburg but tried to enthusiastically narrate about the great city. This narration is grounded on the archival documents and memoirs, artistic imagination and Bohemian gossip like many other works by Volkov that were published world wide and are universally recognized. The readers of the book will not only learn a lot of rare facts from the history of St.Petersburg but will really "feel the place".
