This book of interviews with writer Mikhail Zadornov is dedicated to history, its most pressing problems, starting with the secret of Prince Rurik and ending with the war that Europe has been waging against Russia for centuries. Zadornov argues, talks about our historical roots, puts forward mind-blowing hypotheses, builds analogies and... often turns out to be right. Many of the issues to which he was once the first to draw attention are now on the political agenda. Zadornov believed that only knowledge of historical truth could provide Russia with a sovereign and victorious ideology. Let's listen to the writer, who was called the Prophetic Zadornov for a reason.
