Publisher's Synopsis

Tent Life in Siberia is a travelogue written by George Kennan, an American explorer, in which he describes his experiences and adventures during his expedition to Siberia, Kamchatka, and Northern Asia in the late 19th century. The book is divided into two parts: the first part is about Kennan's journey to Siberia and his life in the wilderness, where he lived in a tent and had to endure harsh weather conditions, dangerous animals, and encounters with indigenous people. The second part of the book is about his encounters with the Koraks and other tribes in Kamchatka and Northern Asia, where he learned about their customs, traditions, and way of life. Throughout the book, Kennan provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, flora, and fauna of the region, as well as the people he met and the challenges he faced. Tent Life in Siberia is an engaging and informative account of a fascinating period in history and a must-read for anyone interested in exploration, adventure, and anthropology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
