Publisher's Synopsis
Unfortunately, there is not enough information to provide a complete description of this book. There are several books with the title ""Russia and Poland"" by different authors, including a travelogue by Casanova, Jacques, but without further details, it is impossible to provide an accurate description.The empress, who was a woman of moderate height and yet of a majestic appearance, thoroughly understood the art of making herself loved. She was not beautiful, but yet she was sure of pleasing by her geniality and her wit, and also by that exquisite tact which made one forget the awfulness of the sovereign in the gentleness of the woman. A few days after, Count Partin told me that the empress had twice asked after me, and that this was a sure sign I had pleased her.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
