Sinossi
Excerpt from Real Russians
I have been requested to write a few words as an Introduction to the book which Mrs. Sonia Howe is presenting to the public. I gladly comply with the request, as I am sure that a perusal of the book will afford both pleasure and instruction to the reader. The main object of the journey of Mrs. Howe to Russia was to endeavour to obtain an amnesty for political exiles, and she also had an opportunity offered to her of befriending Russian prisoners of war who had escaped from German captivity. Her efforts in the above directions were satisfactorily successful, and She displayed both energy and tact in attaining her ends. The Sketches which she gives of the persons with whom She came in contact, and of the various scenes and in cidents which impressed her on her travels, are vivid and realistic, and are portrayed with considerable descriptive charm and force. I confidently recommend the book to the British public.
