A Russian Orthodox man regards bells as not merely metal-made goods, but permanent fellow travelers of life accompanying him from his birthday till his last hours. Based on different historical sources (annalistic data, inventories of cloisters and churches, descriptions of lost bells, inscriptions, etc.), the author traces the centuries-long history of bells in Russia. The reader will find interesting information about outstanding masters of bell-casting art, bell-ringers and talented architects, who created unsurpassed bell towers.
