Abstract

The article reviews A.E. Shapovalova’s monograph Old Lessner – Torpedo – Engine: 170 Years of Production History and points out the importance and relevance of the work, which is practically the first strictly scientific study on the history of one of the oldest machine-building enterprises not just in St. Petersburg, but in Russia as a whole. The book demonstrates the continuity between different periods of the company’s history, which allowed it to remain a leading centre for the development and production of marine underwater weapons for a long time.
