Based on meticulous study and generalization of extensive archival documents, memoirs and diaries of Moscow old -timers, works of historians, notes and works of writers, journalists and travelers of both domestic and foreign, the author managed to recreate the multidimensional and exciting panorama of Moscow, which developed after the great fire of 1812. The second capital appears as a holy and ancient city, beautiful and ugly, but constantly updated, the city of non -religios and splendor, with the same contrasting and bizarre everyday life of Moscow inhabitants and inhabitants of all classes - nobles, merchants, bourgeois, bourgeois, bourgeois artisans and factory, students and priests, beggars, holy fools and saints. From the book you can also learn about the city economy and the authorities from the Budomnik to the Governor-General, about the family celebrations of the reigning house, religious traditions, holidays and entertainment gardens, theatrical and fair actions, student feasts and unrest, sports.
