Summary
Charles Christian Young’s account records travels through European and Asiatic Russia beginning in 1907 and later trips into St. Petersburg, West Turkestan, Bokhara, and the northern border of Afghanistan. It is framed by acknowledgments to Russian and American officials who helped secure introductions, permits, and access, and it gathers material from earlier articles on Russian life, politics, and perceptions of America. The book also reflects the author’s conversations with Russian acquaintances about American race relations, mob violence, and ideas of civilization.
