MOORE, FREDERICK FERDINAND. Siberia today. il *$2 Appleton 915.7
19–19482
“As one of a number of intelligence officers dispatched by the United States to Siberia in the summer of 1918, Mr Moore had opportunity to see something of the diplomatic and political conditions of that distracted country, as well as much of its peasant life. His volume is a lively narrative devoted rather to description than to analysis.” (N Y Evening Post) “He has much of interest to tell about the people, the prisons, the Cossack chiefs, the work of Bolshevists, and the German propaganda, and there are a great number of photographs.” (The Times [London] Lit Sup)
“A breezy account with serious convictions set down in journalistic style.”

“Captain Moore has a good journalistic sense, and he has enlivened his criticisms by many vivid and lively pictures of life in Siberia today.”
