Review
The book of Rupasov Pavel Georgievich «SAINT. PETERSBURG. 310 years of the Central Naval Museum of Russia» — the title of the full version of the book — is dedicated to the Central Naval Museum (CNM).
It includes a brief history of the museum, a critical evaluation of the activities of the modern management of the museum in a comparative historical aspect, as well as articles on topical issues of the development of the modern fleet and the historiography of the Black Sea Fleet.
The book is written in good Russian, it contains well-founded and factual arguments.
The book contains critical remarks, which, however, do not seek to denigrate the actions of the museum management, but are aimed at improving the work of the museum and strengthening its authority in society.
Analysis of the facts given in the book shows that this aim is quite achievable. The book is recommended for publication in the maximum possible circulation. The book is well illustrated and educationally significant for the modern reader.
