Gift book "Legend of the inhabited localities of the Kiev province"

The Legend of the Populated Areas of the Kiev Province by Lavrentiy Pokhilevich was published in 1864.

With its half-leather binding, this book will make for a wonderful gift for all true history buffs, becoming a guide to how villages and cities are founded. Before writing the book, the author carefully collected information about the events in Kievan Rus of that period and added the stories of ordinary people and his own research to the mix. Pokhilevich most conveniently placed the villages, towns and cities of the Kiev province in alphabetical order, which makes it possible to find the object of interest with great speed. The book features silvering and gilding, as well as enamel, and blind and gold embossing. In addition to black-and-white illustrations, there are also colour ones, which gives the reader a great opportunity not only to read but also visit episodes of that distant era.
