About the book: year / The book can be called a Western and a chrono-opera, a Robinsonade and a historical novel - on its pages there is enough time travel, skirmishes with natives or robbers, and other classic adventures on land and at sea. However, this is not pure action. The hero of the book not only acts, he observes, compares, and reflects. The book contains serious ethnographic and historical material on Eastern Siberia, the Far East, and the former Russian territories of North America even before they became Russian.
