Дела давно минувших дней

Things from days gone by

This book reads like a fairy tale, although it is a serious historical work. That is why it is republished again and again, and yet it was written 200 years ago! Pushkin himself spoke with delight about it: “Today I accidentally opened “History in Stories” and involuntarily began to read it. This is how you should write!”
Most likely, Alexandra Ishimova’s book is suitable not for independent reading, but for reading by adults to children; and not in order to read it without interruption, like fiction - a book a week, but for leisurely reading, little by little, one chapter at a time. In order to turn to it from time to time, gradually opening the pages of the history of the Russian state to the child.
