This is a legend and pride of Russian culture, a self-taught master from Nizhny Novgorod, a creator of unique mechanisms, an inventor whose ideas were ahead of their time and were implemented years and even centuries later. Foreigners hunted for his drawings, and all his life he thought not about personal gain, but about the glory of the Fatherland. Perhaps for the first time the figure of Kulibin, the life and fate of the Russian genius in this book appear so vividly, accessible and humanly warm.
