The life of the first leaders of states - details of work and leisure, is always interesting for their subjects. Official information, biographies and “frank” interviews are so emasculated that sometimes it is no longer believed that the leaders are also people made of sweat and blood. This book, completely unofficial, is compiled on the basis of stories and memories of those who were close to the top officials day and night. These people, who were constantly close to the top officials, their families, guests, were concerned not only with their safety, but also with all other aspects of life: consumer services, transport, communications, even the leisure of their charges. Thus, you will see the lifestyle, way of life, and habits of the top officials of our country. The author is one of the most famous journalists in Russia, an employee of the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper, on the basis of whose sensational reports this book was made.
