Section I enjoy looking at pictures includes papers about people who had played a significant role in the history of the Chechen nation. The young researchers highlight the most typical life experiences and the life stories of the well-known people, such as a Chechen poet who has survived GULAG.
The collection also includes several Russian schoolchildren's papers about the war in Chechnya. Section Lessons That Are Never Learnt raise a question about the causes of the developments in Chechnya and their tragic effects for the entire Russia.
In many papers the Chechens' life experiences are intertwined with those of people of other ethnic origins in the soviet and post-soviet environment. Maxim Isaev gave a wonderful portrait of a Russian priest and human rights advocate who perished from thugs.
The papers have detailed comments and photographs. The book also includes a chronological chart of the most important events in the Russian/Chechen history.
