Ogarev was a lifelong friend, fellow-exile and collaborator of Alexander Herzen on ''Kolokol'', a newspaper printed in England and smuggled into Russia. In the summer of 1827, during a walk in the Sparrow Hills above Moscow, Herzen and Ogarev (both in their teens) made an oath not to rest until their country was free; the oath reportedly sustained them and their friends throughout many crises of their lives at home and abroad and was described in E. H. Carr's ''The Romantic Exiles''. The place of the oath is now marked with a monument. Provided by Wikipedia
