Saint Petersburg

Saint Petersburg is the first guidebook exclusively devoted to the lesser-known museums in the city.

It will tell you what they are, where they are, when they are open, and what you can expect to find in them. It will open up a new world, a St. Petersburg that is prepared to reveal its secrets to anyone who takes the trouble to investigate and inquire.(from John Julius Norwich’sintroduction to this book).
