In the books of the unique series of the publishing house Strelbitsky "Russian Historical Novel" revive pages of history, from ancient times to our days. The writers who created in Russian never limited themselves to geographical or chronological frames, but, of course, the main themes of the creations that came from their pen - from the history of Russia, Russia.
