Before the construction of the DniproHES dam, which flooded the rapids on the Dnipro, the state publishing house of Soviet Ukraine turned to the expert on the history of old Ukraine, academician Dmytro Yavornytskyi, with a proposal to compile an album of the Dnipro rapids and their description in order to leave for posterity a description of this area, which had such a great importance in the history of Ukrainians.

The result of the work of Academician D. Yavornytsky and his expeditions is this book.
