The materials published in them were devoted to the revolutionary movement of the 1860-1880s, and especially to the "People’s Will" . A significant part of the materials was a reprint of the old illegal literature, but there were also unpublished materials and memoirs. After Burtsev returned to Russia in the autumn of 1905 and after an amnesty in January 1906, together with V. Ya. Bogucharsky and P. E. Shchegolev, he founded the journal Byloe in Petersburg.
