Vse praviteli Moskvy 1917 - 2017g - Poliatykin Mikhail Aleksandrovich

This book is about those who had the fate to be the first persons of the Moscow government during the 20th century - such a desperate, so tense, so difficult in the history of world history, in the history of Russia and, of course, in the history of its unsurpassed capital - the city of Moscow.
The authors of the book - historians, writers and journalists, relying on archival documents, testimonies of contemporaries, materials from family archives, diary entries, seek to restore in the biographies of their heroes forgotten episodes of their biographies, to update memory of their affairs for the benefit of Moscow and the Muscovites. Live portraits of the capital's chiefs are recreated, who not only work and reflect, but love, become disillusioned, mistaken... It was not customary to write about the personal lives of statesmen before. In Soviet times, the names of some of them were banned, or even erased from human memory.
This book is about those who led Moscow, giving it strength, experience and skill, as well as those who lead it today.
