Includes detailed content about Russia's extensive river transport systems. Rosrechflot, now known as the Federal Agency for Maritime and River Transport, manages both sea and inland water transport in Russia. Its responsibilities include managing river ports and promoting shipping routes on Russia's major rivers, such as the Volga, Lena, and Ob. [From preface] The prestigeous-advertising album "River Fleet of Russia is at Your Service" contains data on the history of the Russian river fleet development from the oldest times to the present days. An outburst of tourism and cruising, the yearning of millions of people for the knowledge of their motherland and foreign countries will attract a wide circle of readers to the present edition. The album does not claim to be a scientific work and cannot compete with guide-books. This edition consists of a series of free-style assays, in which the authors worked as if cooperating sometimes with historians and art and literary critics, sometimes with the river transport commercial and administrative bodies. Concise information about vessels designs from the oldest ones to the most modern ones, about the waterways development and about the potentialities of the modem river transport of Russia is presented in the album. The readers will get an idea about the regions and the tourist routes coming through them, about the towns and the monuments, the treasures of Russian architecture, about folklore singing, reflecting the history of the country's water transport. The edition contains many illustrations, which will arouse the riders' lively interest. Rare illustrations, some of which are published for the first time, to the authors' mind raise the scientific and practical importance of the prestigeous advertising album, make it more useful to the specialists and more interesting for a wide circle of readers.
