The Empire of the Czar - Or, Observations on the Social, Political, and Religious State and Prospects of Russia, Made During a Journey Through That Empire #246097

The w'ork recently published in Paris, of which these volumes are a translation, has appeared in the form of letters addressed to anonymous friends. This form has not been preserved in the translation, which is divided into chapters an arrangement better adapted to the taste of the English reader, and unobjectionable in other respects, as the division of the chapters still corresponds with that of the original epistles. In making the alteration, a few very trivial modifications in the phraseology of the text. Were necessary.
