Présentation de l'éditeur

Russian villages. I f, in addition to the pleasure this gives me, my recollections are found to have a pohtical or historical value, so much the better. But I shall quote no general statistics, and pronounce no pohtical judgements. I shall report nothing but what I personally experienced, and what was said to me in conversation; I may say httle, but what I do say will be all first-hand. My chief hope for this book is that it may help to make others think of Russia, not as an abstraction, not as a unit, but as a very large number of very interesting human beings, most of them lovable.
