About This Book

The author recounts roaming journeys from Russian towns into the Caucasus, narrating a train robbery, seasonal celebrations, and meetings with a variety of local people. He describes shrines, monasteries, fairs and village inns, and records mountain dawns, glaciers, gorges, and long walks over high passes. Encounters range from hospitable households to austere religious observances, market life, and an episode of arrest by officials. The narrative blends vivid landscape description with personal anecdote and practical travel notes, including an appendix of advice for prospective tourists. Reflections on tramping, language, and daily rhythms provide the travelogue's connective thread.
