1001 Zadacha dlia Umstvennogo Scheta (Russian Edition) by S. A. Rachinskii, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Sergei Rachinsky was a Russian botanist turned village schoolteacher, famous for the mental arithmetic he taught peasant children at his school in Tatevo. This collection of 1,001 problems for mental calculation, in the original Russian, comes from that classroom, which was immortalised in Bogdanov-Belsky's painting Mental Arithmetic. A delight for puzzle lovers and teachers.
About this leather-bound edition
We cover every book in genuine leather by hand, finishing the spine with gold-tone foil titling and decorative tooling in the tradition of fine library bindings. Because each copy is made individually, small variations in leather grain and colour are a natural sign of handwork.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
