History of Russia in stories for the youth.
Saint-Petersburg, Jakob Trey, 1856.
3 vol. in-8o, red buckram bindings, marbled edges. Fourth edition, corrected and augmented.
Ishimova was the last correspondent of Alexandre Pushkin. He wrote her a letter with an enthusiastic response to her book in the morning of the day of his last fatal duel on January, 27th, 1837: «Today I inadvertently opened up your «History in stories...» and got absorbed into reading it. That’s the way one should write a book!»
