100 Wonders of the Far East of Russia

OAO RAO Energy Systems of the East and PressPass Publishers Present a Unique Book on the Modern Far East

100 wonders of the Far East of Russia, seen and captured by the best photographers of the country, are collected in one book: Red Book Animals, amazing landscapes and natural phenomena, unique infrastructure objects.

"100 Wonders of the Far East" - a book-photo album - will appear in bookstores before the New Year. The pages of the publication contain the most valuable and significant objects that characterize the region.

The book was published with the support of OAO RAO Energy Systems of the East, a company that provides energy and heat to the entire Far Eastern Federal District. "... The Far East is a place where everything is merged, than Russia is strong. Untouched wildlife remains home to hundreds of rare species of animals and plants; centuries-old culture has preserved the identity of dozens of small nationalities; people are working to develop their regions, "the company's CEO, S. Tolstoguzov, shares his thoughts on the book.

"100 Wonders of the Far East" is a colorful photo album, divided into chapters dedicated to plants and animals, landscapes and natural phenomena, culture and traditions, industry and infrastructure. Each of the hundred "miracles" described in the book is unique and unique in its own way. Surprisingly, the neighborhood of the Red Book animals, ancient national customs and industrial structures does not look confused. On the contrary, the restriction of the number of objects represented excludes unnecessary information, which is attracted to the ears and makes reading cognitive and curious.

The photo album "100 Wonders of the Far East" demonstrates how beautiful, rich and diverse the nature of Russia is even within the framework of one Far Eastern Federal District. After all, the Russian Far East is a huge territory, almost untouched by man, which preserved the primordial territory. Nine regions: Yakutia, Magadan, Amur and Sakhalin regions, Khabarovsk, Primorsky and Kamchatka Territories, the Jewish Autonomous Region and Chukotka - all together occupy more than a third of our country, but only one-twentieth of Russia's population lives on these lands.

The book is full of author's photographs of the unique objects of the Far East of Russia - a region in which many small peoples with an original culture live, industrial production is concentrated, a large part of natural resources are extracted and untouched ecosystems necessary for the existence of many rare plants and animals listed in the Red Book The Russian Federation.

About the illustrations published in the book, of course, it is worth telling separately. The pages of the publication include works by world famous wildlife photographers: Alexei Bezrukov, Sergei Gorshkov, Nikolai Zinoviev, Paul Niklen, Andrian Kolotilin, Dmitry Utkin, Igor Shpilenka and others. It is noteworthy that photographs of all animals, even the rarest, are made in a natural habitat. "The authors of the photographs are unique people who forever linked their lives with nature. Some of them (Alexei Bezrukov, Denis Kochetkov - approx. red.) Are staff members of federal reserves, others (Andrian Kolotilin, Igor Shpilenok - прим. ред.) work there as volunteers, gathering information and telling the general public about a special world of untouched, wild nature, "explains the editor and compiler of the book Andranik Agafonov. "These people, who are prepared for hardship and who sacrifice their comfort, we are obliged by the fact that in our country natural ecosystems are preserved, the number of rare species of plants and animals is successfully restored."

Attention is also drawn to the illustrations of other sections on the "man-made" wonders of the region. Among the authors are popular bloggers-travelers Sergei Share and Ivan Dementievsky. A number of pictures, geographically belonging to the Primorsky Territory, is made by Alexander Khitrov, a photographer of industrial objects known in the Far East.

PressPass publishers note that today the book “100 Wonders of the Far East” is the only print publication that combines unique phenomena and natural monuments of the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District, portraits and descriptions of rare plants and animals, cultural objects, industry and infrastructure. “It’s hard to imagine how rich and diverse our country is. It is sad that with such colossal territories and scales true “miracles” remain unknown for years and inaccessible. We believe that the book "100 Miracles of the Far East" will help to change the situation, to draw attention to the region ", - summed up in the publishing house.

Earlier PressPass in cooperation with RAO ES of the East published the book "The Far East. A modern guidebook. " The edition became the ancestor of a whole series of books about the region: in 2014, books were published about modern Yakutia and Kamchatka.
