Мирович. Княжна Тараканова. Сожжённая Москва.

Three historical novels were included in G. Danilevsky's book: Mirovich', 'Princess Tarakanova' and 'Burned Moscow'. The novel 'Mirovich' depicts the era of palace coups of the 18th century in Russia. 'Princess Tarakanova' is a love historical novel by Grigory Petrovich Danilevsky, dedicated to the tragic fate of the imaginary daughter of Empress Elizabeth Petrovna. Princess Tarakanova was given their hearts by Hetman Oginsky, the German Sovereign Prince Limburg and Count Alexei Orlov, the most insidious Don Juan of the Russian Empire. This woman was sacrificed, but passion and love are immortal... The novel 'Burned Moscow' is dedicated to the events of the war of 1812. The plot of the novel is based on the fate of V. A. Petrovsky, the illegitimate son of the Minister of Education A. K. Razumovsky. Descriptions of the atrocities of the Napoleonic army, the arbitrariness of the French command, national disasters and the selfless struggle of Russian patriots occupy a large place in the novel. The attention of the modern reader will be attracted by the reliability of many scenes based on the use of memoirs and archival documents.'
