The collection is dedicated to the Christmas tree holiday in Russia at the end of the 19th - beginning of the 20th century. Christmas stories and poems by popular authors, authentic letters, excerpts from magazine articles, and memories of contemporaries vividly recreate the atmosphere of the turn of the century. Extensive historical and everyday commentary, detailed descriptions of children's Christmas tree and all kinds of crafts familiarize the reader with the traditions of celebrating the New Year and Christmas. One hundred years ago, the succession of winter holidays, the most generous on miracles, was the same and not the same that nowadays. In this book, as in the beam of a magic lantern, stands before us the holiday of Christmas trees with all its intoxicating details. Joyful secrets and brand-new matrons, foreign cartonages and pretty bonbonnières, New Year's troubles and family fun of the old days. One should turn the page - and there they are, Christmas tree markets in the squares, the creak of skids, the crackle of clappers, the rustle of paper for gilding nuts, the smell of pine needles and honey gingerbread, the coveted gifts. The same familiar mystery, and a pile of charming trifles, and the Christmas tree in the full glory of holly decorations - just like a hundred years ago. - Letters of children of the late XIX - early XX century: what they were interested in, how they had fun, how they celebrated Christmas and New Year. - Articles, fun and crafts from old children's magazines. - Vintage Christmas tree toys from the three largest Russian collections.
