An unusual popular history publication (a guide, a reference book, and an album) that brings time to life. The second half of the 19th century marks the era of the Great Reforms in Russia. Serfdom fades into history, and a country with enormous potential begins to move toward capitalist modernization of its economy. At the beginning of the 20th century, Russia firmly establishes itself as the fifth largest industrial producer in the world. Drawing on numerous specialized sources, notably periodicals, I. Arkhangelskaya presents a picture of old Russia's economic life, replete with events, facts, and figures, and introduces the reader to the valuable business experience of the past. The publication contains two hundred illustrations; various historical and biographical references; a business dictionary and informative newspaper and magazine reports; samples of trademarks and advertisements; portraits and apt characterizations of successful businessmen, as well as timeless thoughts and insights gleaned from forgotten books and periodicals.
