This books describes in great details the course of battle of Kulikovo, the events that preceded the battle and battle's results. In addition, for the first time in Russian historiography, the authors made an attempt to reconstruct the appearance of the battle's participants, show various kits of defensive and offensive armament characteristic for the troops of Moscow's Russia, Golden Orda and its potential European allies. This was done on the basis of known archeological artifacts and pictures of the time. Thus, the readers are given an opportunity to see the appearance of the warriors of the end of 14th century in different countries of Europe and Asia.
The book is well illustrated and supplied with vocabulary and would be of interest for the professional historians, museum workers and for the general readers.
