The authors of this book crossed Siberia with only one passport between them: they travelled by rail on the Trans-Siberian, by sledge across the frozen steppes and through pine forests where the wolf packs are still a menace, by boat down the ice-choked Shilka and Amur rivers to the Manchurian border. They lived and travelled with all sorts of people and saw the country as it really is. There is a chapter on the colonization of Siberia by the Russian Government, which promises to be one of the really great achievements in this world's history, while the plague-ridden districts of Manchuria are vividly portrayed.
