4.0 out of 5 stars
Esoteric but interesting account of 19th Century travels.,
By Glen Matthews (gmatthews@balmar.com) (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The frigate Pallada (Hardcover)
Goncharov was the secretary to the Vice Admiral in charge of a Russian fact-finding tour of the world which began in 1952 and ended over 2 years later. His observations, especially of the English, are accurate and sometimes humorous and colorful. He went on to win acclaim with Oblomov. This is a good opportunity to read earlier writings of a great Russian novelist.
