What Our Customers Say...
Description

The third edition of this work. Incomplete in one volume, lacking the second volume. A fascinating travel work documenting a journey on foot through Russia and Siberia. From this journey the author earned the nickname 'Pedestrian Traveller'. Illustrated with a chromo-lithograph frontispiece, two folding plates, and one plate. Written by Captain John Dundas Cochrane, a Scottish officer in the Royal Navy and explorer. He crossed France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Russia, and Asia to Kamchatka on foot.
