Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tchitchikoff's Journeys, or Dead Souls, Vol. 1
When the carriage entered the court-yard, the gentle man was received by one Of the servants of the inn, or a polovoi as they are called in Russian hostelries, who was so lively and restless that it was even impossible to see'what sort of a face he had. He ran out briskly, napkin in hand, his long figure clad in a long cotton surtout, with its waist almost at the nape of his neck.
