This 1946 first edition explores Moscow's urban nomenclature through historical analysis, tracing how the city's street names reflect its evolution across distinct periods. The volume systematically examines Moscow from its ancient origins through the reigns of Ivan the Terrible, the 17th century, feudal and capitalist eras, culminating in the socialist period. Comprehensive indexing includes an alphabetical directory of streets, lanes, and squares referenced throughout, alongside an illustrations index. An essential reference for understanding Moscow's historical geography and the cultural significance embedded in its toponymy.
