  Leather-bound book by V. Kulikov "Russian aviation in the First World War" Leather-bound book by V. Kulikov "Russian aviation in the First World War" The book is written on the basis of the author's scrupulous study of documentary sources on aviation during the First World War. This is the first fundamental monograph on this topic in the last 50 years. The text is complemented by more than 400 illustrations, many of which are published for the first time. Publications devoted to aviation during the First World War relate mainly to the Western Front. They describe the combat work of the aviation of Germany, France, England, Austria-Hungary, Italy and other countries participating in the war. Meanwhile, readers know relatively little about the actions of military aviation in Russia before 1917. There are few works devoted to this topic: This is P.D. Duz's book "The History of Aviation and Aeronautics in Russia (July 1914 — October 1917)", written more than half a century ago, and separate articles in magazines. I hope that the history of the Russian Military Air Fleet and its combat use offered to the reader will help fill the gap in this area of national history. In Soviet times, the topic of the First World War in general and Russian aviation in particular was considered unpopular, and little attention was paid to it. This is especially noticeable when compared with countless publications devoted to Soviet aviation during the Great Patriotic War. The fact is that the First World War, according to the official version, was an imperialist war, a war waged by tsarist Russia and fought so persistently by the Bolsheviks. Many names of the heroes of the air war (Kozakov, Smirnov, Yanchenko, etc.) were undeservedly forgotten, since during the Civil War they preferred to remain faithful to the oath and joined the ranks of the White Army. The author worked for more than 15 years in the military historical archives and museums of the USSR and Russia, collected a large amount of documentary and illustrative material and presented it in the form of a book, which he offers to the reader. The combat operations of army, heavy bomber and fighter aircraft are described in detail in the relevant chapters and sections. A brief description of the selfless work of military pilots, observer pilots, and balloonists is given. Tragic episodes of unequal struggle in the air, heroism and courage of Russian aviators are repeatedly noted in the cited documents and orders of the military command. A special chapter is devoted to the actions of naval aviation of the Black Sea and Baltic fleets, including the combat work of balloonists, naval pilots and shipboard aircraft. For the first time, the issues of personnel training for aviation and aeronautics during the war years were highlighted. A separate section tells about the development of the Russian aviation industry and the supply of foreign aviation equipment. The final chapters are devoted to the combat actions of anti-aircraft artillery and the assistance of aviation science to the front.

  The leather-bound book "Great Russia. Excellent bravery" in the box The leather-bound book "Great Russia. Excellent bravery" in the box Dmitry Klochkov's book is dedicated to a well-known but little-studied elite unit of the Russian Guard, His Imperial Majesty's Own convoy. Many years have passed, and none of the guards are alive anymore, but we are returning to the glorious traditions of the Imperial Guard more and more often. Created for political purposes, this military unit has left a significant mark not only in the court life of St. Petersburg, but also in the military history of Russia. A significant part of the study is devoted to the description of uniforms, weapons and regalia of the convoy. These attributes were present for each Guards regiment, supporting its corporate identity. Most of the materials contained in the book were not used in the open press. The book contains photographs of authentic items of uniforms, weapons, awards, reproductions of paintings and drawings, copies of orders, and author's reconstructions.

  The leather-bound book "Kim Philby and the Cambridge Five" The leather-bound book "Kim Philby and the Cambridge Five" Many books have been written about the legendary "five" Soviet intelligence officers who were recruited during their studies at Cambridge University. In our country they are considered heroes, in Britain they are considered traitors of their generation. This book is unique in that it has been prepared on the basis of archival materials of the SVR of Russia. For the first time, the reader will see dozens of newly declassified original documents submitted by Kim Philby and his friends to the Center. On the eve and during the Second World War, members of the group transmitted to Moscow a huge amount of classified information that saved the lives of dozens, and maybe hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers and brought Victory closer. It is safe to say that in the middle of the twentieth century there was no such important event on which valuable information would not be received from the members of the "five". These are Hitler's plans to attack the USSR, the battle of Moscow, the Kursk Bulge, and the attempts of Hitler's leaders to conduct separate negotiations behind our country's back, and the plans of militaristic Japan.… At different times, each of the Cambridge men found themselves at the forefront of events, but from the point of view of intelligence professionals, Kim Philby has always remained its organizational core, invisible guardian angel, and reliable support.

Inside, unique texts by aviation historians, balloonists and aviators are collected, dedicated to key milestones in the conquest of airspace — from the myths of the Ancient World to the beginning of the 20th century.

  Книга в кожаном переплете "1943. Курская битва. Великий перелом" Книга в кожаном переплете "1943. Курская битва. Великий перелом" Книга – память военного поколения, книга – одновременно голос далекой эпохи и оценка современной исторической науки. Она – об одном из самых ключевых событий Великой Отечественной, да и всей Второй мировой войны – о Курской битве. Она длилась 50 дней - с 5 июля по 23 августа 1943 года. Это героическое и трагическое время отражено в собранных в книге документах и газетах того времени, а также письмах, дневниках и воспоминаниях. Их авторы – самые различные люди. От всемирно известных полководцев до рядовых пехотинцев, танкистов, летчиков, бронебойщиков, которые жгли немецкие «Тигры» и «Пантеры». А также - писателей, артистов учителей и обычных советских граждан. Одни из них на самих себе испытали небывалый по мощности удар немецкого «бронированного кулака» под Курском, но смогли выдержать, выстоять и заставить гитлеровцев отступать. Другие находились в тылу, но оставили после себя ценнейшие свидетельства очевидцев об атмосфере, в которой жила страна во время Курской битвы. Главная задача книги – дать самую широкую панораму Курской битвы, которую часто называют «Великим переломом» в Великой Отечественной войне. Действительно: после лета 1943 года Германия уже навсегда потеряла стратегическую инициативу, а Красная армия безостановочно наступала на Запад до самой Победы. Но не стоит забывать, что этот перелом был возможен только благодаря колоссальному напряжению сил, небывалому героизму и огромным потерям, которые во время 50-ти «курских дней» понес Советский Союз. Книга иллюстрирована уникальными фотографиями и содержит целый ряд документов, в том числе и тех, с которых лишь недавно был снят гиф секретности.

The Stargift collection contains an antique edition of the statistical collection of information on Russia of the Central Statistical Committee of the Interior of the Russian Empire for 1890, duplicated in two languages — Russian and French. The collection provides summary tables with various statistical data: on fires over 28 years, on urban productivity, on gold mining, on the production of pig iron and iron by districts, on tax collections by provinces, on the performance of military service and others. The organizational and structural design of statistical activities in Russia began on September 8, 1802. On the basis of the Supreme Manifesto, at the end of the year, each Minister was obliged to submit to His Imperial Majesty, through the Government Senate, a written report on the management of all the units entrusted to him. On March 20, 1811, the official center for government Statistics of Russia was established — the Statistical Part of the Russian Empire. Later, a special Statistical office is established in the Council of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. His task was to compile detailed and as accurate as possible descriptions of the condition of all units subordinate to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In addition, he was charged with preliminary consideration of city plans, projects for new divisions of provinces and counties, and assumptions about city revenues and expenditures. The basis of statistical work was the information received from the departments of the Ministry and from the heads of provinces. The rules stipulated that in the production of statistical work, officials should always begin with a historical review of the previous state of the part described by them, in order to compare it with the present. Tables were attached to the text of the descriptions. In 1852, a Statistical Committee was established under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and on March 4, 1858, it received the name of the Central Statistical Committee. This transformation testified to the official recognition of the need to combine all statistical work carried out in the country.

  A leather-bound book "Chess in the USSR. Illustrated History" A leather-bound book "Chess in the USSR. Illustrated History" This album offers a panorama of the seventy-year history of Soviet chess in all its diversity, to feel the movement of time, to see how thousands of fans of the game become millions, how the era of silent films, telegraphic games and circles in workers' clubs grows into the era of nationally known champions, the "Chess School" on Central Television, simultaneous game sessions. on a thousand boards. It allows us to evaluate chess in the USSR as a unique cultural phenomenon of the 20th century, to trace the transformation of the artful fun of intelligent people into a powerful tool for the cultural development of the country. To see a successful example of how, through the efforts of interested people, public interest received government support, and how over time the whole world, regardless of political leanings, realized the need to study the Soviet experience in this area. In the recently published book "Luck of the XX Century," historians who tried to systematize the positive experience of our country in the past century devoted a separate chapter to chess. But back in 1951, Sovietologist G. Schwartz, who was critical of Russia, admitted in his quest to uncover the "secret of Soviet chess" that "one can make fun of Soviet claims to primacy in everything in the world, but in at least one area the Soviets really beat everyone: chess. Their successes bring tangible prestige to the Soviet Union and destroy the image of Russians as a semi–civilized backward people, a view that was diligently promoted by the Nazis before and during World War II." In an era of warming relations between Russia and the West, British Professor D. Richards set out to study Soviet chess in order, as he writes, "not to glorify or defame the Soviet regime, but to conduct an analysis in a small area of intellectual history." He tried to define the place of the chess movement in the USSR between two extreme poles, on one of which the history of Soviet chess is "an example of the wisdom and benevolence of the Soviet regime," and on the other it provides an example of "the triumph of human genius over totalitarian control." The professor drew attention to a paradox showing that the development of chess culture does not fit into the political and ideological framework of the state. Indeed, in the USSR, chess was given its due, on the one hand, by prominent statesmen from Lenin and Kalinin to Brezhnev and Defense Minister Malinovsky, and, on the other hand, by such symbols of opposition to the government as the future Interior Minister of Israel Sharansky and the future President of Lithuania Landsbergis. Among the hundreds of photographs, documents, and exhibits, there are rare and unfamiliar ones even to experts: they are published in this book for the first time. A significant part of the Illustrated History materials is based on the collection of the Chess Museum and the archive of the Russian Chess Federation. However, for all its diversity, this is not a comprehensive encyclopedia or a reference book: all the wealth accumulated in those years cannot be exhausted even by a multi-volume publication.

  Leather-bound book "Two-time explorations in the Arctic Ocean and sailing around the world" by F.F.Bellingshausen Leather-bound book "Two-time explorations in the Arctic Ocean and sailing around the world" by F.F.Bellingshausen For a long time, the sixth continent was safely sheltered from humanity by the violent stormy latitudes of the Southern Ocean. James Cook himself, after circumnavigating the world, indisputably rejected the possibility of the existence of a continent beyond the ice edge. Half a century later, this opinion was disputed by the sailors of the first Russian Antarctic expedition, undertaken on the sailing sloops Vostok and Mirny in 1819-1821. The discovery of Antarctica inscribed the names of F. F. Bellingshausen and M. P. Lazarev in the chronicle of the greatest discoverers and travelers of all time. In his notes, Admiral Thaddeus Bellingshausen vividly described the vicissitudes of a naval campaign, rightfully considered the most difficult and important ever accomplished. A striking addition to the fascinating narrative were the sketches of another member of the expedition, the artist Pavel Mikhailov.

Kuznetsovs to the Polar Urals", St. Petersburg, 1911 Notes of the Imperial Academy of Sciences on the Physics and Mathematics Department. Volume XXVIII. No. 1. Scientific results of the Kuznetsov brothers expedition to the Polar Urals in 1909, under the command of O.O. Backlund. On September 22, 1909, the head of the expedition, Oleg Backlund, sent a telegram from the village of Samarovsky, present-day Khanty-Mansiysk, addressed to Academician Chernyshev: "The Kara expedition, having successfully completed the route, completed the work on September 16" (Minutes of the meetings of the FMO, 1909). On this day, the members of the expedition of the Kuznetsov brothers (the second name of the "Kara expedition") boarded a steamer going up the Ob River, and on October 2 returned to Tyumen without any special incidents. The four and a half months that passed between May 10 and October 2 were filled with intensive research work and constant movement from place to place - on steamboats, boats, deer, sleds. Many hundreds of miles have been covered. Even the most concise and dry retelling of the route completed during these summer months speaks eloquently about the scale of the research carried out. The text of the book is accompanied by a large number of drawings, tables and maps. The North Ural expedition of the Academy of Sciences and the Russian Geographical Society in 1909 made a valuable contribution to the study of the polar tip of the Ural Mountains. The name Polar Urals has finally been fixed in science. They began to call the northernmost part of the Ural Mountains - north of 66 ° C.
