"He writes with a clearness, liveliness, and amount of solid but most readable matter to the square inch which make this an exceptionally desirable book of its kind. From the Colonial Secretary, down to the holiday-maker in search of entertaining reading, no one who invests in it will be disappointed."—Pall Mall Gazette.
A Russian Province of the North (Archangel).
By H. ENGELHARDT.
Governor of the Province of Archangel.
Translated from the Russian by Henry Cooke.
With 90 Illustrations after Photographs and 3 Maps.
Royal 8vo, 18s.
"For commercial and for other reasons, one should have an eye on what is being done in this 'Russian Province of the North', where Mr. Engelhardt has already made so notable a mark. Apart from the solid information and the masses of statistics the book contains, the 'Wayside Sketches' of life, manners and scenery around the fringes of the White Sea and the Arctic Ocean will be found pleasant and profitable reading. The volume is admirably illustrated from photographs by Archangel artists."—Scotsman.
