Mi︠a︡kin's memoirs discuss his journalistic career; acquaintances, including the Suvorins and the actress Nadezhda Plevit︠s︡kai︠a︡; the Civil War; the emigration, including the Union of Russian Writers and Journalists in Yugoslavia; horse racing in Russia; and his experiences as a displaced person in Austria after World War II.

These memoirs, in three notebooks(163 p.), were apparently the manuscript of the second part of her memoirs"Moĭ put ́s pesneĭ" (1930); they cover pages 7-98 of that work, from 1909 to World War I. The manuscript is in an unidentified hand, with extensive corrections and additions in, apparently, two other hands.
