The publication of selected works by the famous publicist Gennady Piskarev is caused not only by the growing interest in his work, but also by the reviving active creative activity of our state. The collection includes a small, but the most striking part of the materials published at one time in the most popular periodicals - in magazines “Ogonyok”, “Peasant Woman”, “Rural Nov”, “Soviet Warrior”, in the newspapers “Pravda”, “Rural Life”, and others.
