Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Russia
The first edition of this work, published early in January, 1877, contained the concentrated results of my studies during an uninterrupted residence of six years in Russia - from the beginning of 1870 to the end of 1875. Since that time I have spent in the European and central-asian provinces, at different periods, two or three years more; and in the in tervals I have endeavoured to keep in touch with the progress of events. My observations thus extend over a period of forty years.
