Deutsch, Leo. Sixteen years in Siberia, tr. by Helen Chisholm. $3. Dutton.
A new and cheaper edition of “this well-written and convincing account of penal methods and conditions in Siberia by one who has known them to his cost ... the new edition contains ... a preface, in which the translator seeks to estimate the influence of recent events in giving impetus to the reform movement in Russia” and “an appendix, ... a reply by Count von Bülow to a Reichstag interpellation concerning the Königsberg trial of last July, when certain German subjects were prosecuted for smuggling revolutionary literature into Russia.” (Outlook.)
“The volume deserves a wide reading.”
