Description: The Celebration of the 200th Anniversary of Fort Ross gives us an opportunity to explore the full spectrum of California history. Fort Ross is not only a place of great cultural significance, but for thousands of Orthodox Russians, it is full of deep spiritual meaning as a holy place - a piece of their spiritual Homeland, a relic of Holy Russia. It is from this place that Orthodox Christianity spread all over the American West and became an integral part of its spiritual and cultural landscape. This book aims to show the richness of Orthodox history and traditions and how they have become interwoven with the story of California, inseparable from its multifaceted identity and embodied in Fort Ross.
