This book is one of the first attempts to fully and consistently tell about the riddles of the life of the Zvenigorod miracle worker and one of the most revered saints in Russia - the Monk Savva Storozhevsky, who is called the "prayer book for the kings" and the “defender of Moscow”. Very little is known about his life. The student and associate of Sergius of Radonezh, the confessor of the family of Dmitry Donskoy, he was associated with great achievements and changes in Russia after the victory on the Kulikov field. The author - the famous writer and historian Konstantin Kovalev - chose the genre of fascinating artistic and historical investigation and proposed new dates and hypotheses. Who raised Moscow Russia, fought with the Golden Horde and defeated the Volga Bulgaria? Who inspired Andrei Rublev to create the "Zvenigorod Savior" and "Trinity", blessed the construction of new cathedrals and heavenly city on the Moscow River? When was the Savvino-Sorozhevsky monastery in Zvenigorod, attracting hundreds of thousands of pilgrims? Why did the rulers of Russia sometimes choose not the most successful ways of state development and who influenced their solutions? The legends and myths collected together, sources and facts will help the reader in search of answers to these and many other questions related to the secrets of our ancient history
