"Free Encyclopedia" - a special book. 
First,  only here can be found all under one cover Russia (and all CIS
countries  - under another). And secondly - and most importantly - the
book  answers  the many questions of "How much?", "Where?" and "How?".
How  to get to a city (region), with money, and without? Where to eat?
Where  to spend the night - not only with full, but also with an empty
purse?  Where  to find fellow human beings? How to get out of the city
as  a  hitchhiker?  How to go by rail or passing locomotive, aircraft,
the  motorboat?  How  much  costs  a  loaf  of bread or a lunch in the
cafeteria?  We  have tried to respond to many of these questions. 
A. Krotov, from the preface to 4th "VE" edition
